1. Chips from vegetables and fruits
Vegetable chips
Many people consider vegetable and fruit chips to be a dietary food. Losing weight women love to include them in their diet. Moms feed their babies with banana chips without fear. However, there is no benefit in such products due to the way they are processed.
Both fruit and vegetable chips are fried in oil. To make them crunchy, they are dipped in sauces with various spices, or in sugar syrup. Therefore, the final product is a source of fats, harmful additives and flavor enhancers.
2. Sprouted seeds from the store
Sprouted seeds
It would seem that such a product should be of maximum benefit. However, he became the cause of the mass poisoning of people. Over the past 20 years, the regular consumption of bean sprouts, broccoli, peas and alfalfa in America has been 48 outbreaks of intestinal infections. In this case, 15,000 people were injured. [1]
The fact is that for seed germination, conditions with high humidity and temperature are required. This environment leads to the rapid growth of bacteria. Therefore, the sprouts become a source of Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Listeria.
3. Muesli
Muesli is loved by both children and adults for its sweet taste. They are positioned as healthy foods. Muesli manufacturers recommend using them as a snack, as one of the dietary products. In fact, muesli is a source of flavor enhancers and vegetable fats. There are very few useful components in them.
4. Packaged cream and milk powder
Most of these foods do not contain milk protein. They are made from substances whose names are difficult even to pronounce. They contain hydrogenated refractory oils, flavors, sweet corn syrup. Therefore, regularly adding these foods to tea or coffee will lead to health problems.
5. Energy
All energy drinks taste good because they contain a high dose of corn syrup. Scientists have shown that it promotes early onset of menstruation and leads to weight gain. In the long term, this accumulation of fat can lead to serious health problems such as fatty liver and type 2 diabetes. [2]
Any energy drink contains a lot of caffeine. It negatively affects a person's well-being, disrupts his usual daily routine, does not allow him to fall asleep at night.
6. Semi-finished meat products
Convenient meat products do not provide health benefits. The main enemies of the human body are sausages and sausages. Dumplings, cutlets and canned food are no less dangerous. There is little meat in them, but there are a lot of preservatives, flavor enhancers, fats and harmful additives. If you regularly include such foods in the menu, then the level of cholesterol in the blood rises significantly, which causes the development of heart disease.
Fans of semi-finished meat products suffer from overweight. Contributes to weight gain and other health problems too much salt in these foods.
7. Vitamin supplements in the form of jelly candies
Vitamin Supplements
Jelly vitamin candies are popular with both adults and children. Moreover, every day they talk about their benefits from the TV screen. However, the analysis of the composition of such vitamins made it possible to establish that they contain many colors, flavorings, corn starch and sugar (up to 3 g per 1 serving). The listed substances are not capable of providing health benefits.
Scientists have shown that food colors cause hyperactivity in children and also cause cancer in animals tested. It was found that the red dye causes the development of cancer in laboratory rats. [3]
8. Margarine
Many people safely use margarine as an alternative to butter. However, this product is classified as food waste by nutritionists.
Margarine is a source of vegetable fats derived from soy, emulsifiers and thickeners. It does not contain any useful component, but it is a source of trans fats.
9. Instant noodles
Quick noodles
Instant noodles on their own are not serious health risks. Seasonings and vegetable oil, which is contained in a separate bag and is an addition to each such portion, are dangerous.
Scientists from Baylor University (America) found that people who eat such noodles more than 2 times in 7 days are at high risk of developing cardiometabolic syndrome, heart disease, diabetes mellitus and stroke. [4]
10. Charred meat
Most often, shish kebab is prepared in this way. This dish is loved by many, but not everyone knows that during its preparation, carcinogenic substances (heterocyclic amines and polycyclic hydrocarbons) are formed. Therefore, it is very dangerous to eat such meat.
11. Pangasius
Pangasius
In America and in a number of European countries, this fish is prohibited for sale. It is grown in Vietnam in the Mekong River. It is recognized as one of the dirtiest rivers on the entire planet. Not only sewage drains are discharged into it, but also waste from enterprises.
In order for the fish to multiply and gain weight faster, it is fed with growth hormones and antibacterial drugs. Inspection of fish meat found it to be a source of heavy metals, chemicals, E. coli and Listeria. [five]
12. Breakfast cereals for children
Studies show that each of these foods is a source of 10 hidden sugars. This is refined sugar and sugar substitutes of artificial and natural origin. Artificial sweeteners are dangerous for a child's health.
At the University of Texas, studies were carried out that found that mice fed aspartame suffered from high blood sugar. These rodents always ate more food than the control group. As a result, they quickly gained extra weight.
13. White chocolate
According to scientists, only dark chocolate can bring health benefits. Its white counterpart is harmful to the body, since it does not contain cocoa.
Drew Ramsey, MD, points out that cocoa is a valuable product for humans. It stimulates the brain, protects its blood vessels from damage, improves mood. White chocolate does not possess such properties.
14. Industrial smoothies and yoghurts
Flavors and a lot of sugar are added to smoothies and yoghurts to improve the taste of the product. Scientists have found that 200 ml of yogurt can contain up to 25 g of sugar. If you regularly include such foods in the diet, then the risks of developing diabetes mellitus increase significantly.
15. Red meat
The WHO made a statement in 2015 that processed red meat leads to the development of colon cancer. There is also evidence of a link between red meat and pancreatic and prostate cancer. Dangerous dishes are considered to be pork, beef, veal and lamb, as well as horse meat and goat meat. [6]
The main provocateurs of oncological diseases were recognized: bacon, steaks, ham and cutlets. They should be removed from the menu altogether, or their consumption should be reduced to a minimum.
The Global Burden of Disease Project, an independent academic research organization, has recently estimated that 34,000 cancer deaths per year are associated with high consumption of red meat.
John McDougall (M. D.) recommends replacing red meat with legumes and fresh vegetables and fruits.
16. Fast food
Fast food in America is recognized as the leading cause of death. Scientists say these foods contain dangerous trans fats, monosodium glutamate and multiple dietary supplements.
Just one small bun supplies 15 grams of fat to the body. Studies show that 3% of trans fats per day are enough to raise your risk of heart disease by 23%. [7]
S. A. Eliashevich, therapist, nutritionist of the National Medical Research Center of Preventive Medicine, comments:
Eliashevich
“Many people are interested in what to eat in order to stay healthy. This interest is explained by the fact that obesity is widespread in Russia, people often suffer from diabetes mellitus and from cardiovascular diseases. These pathologies have already acquired the character of an epidemic. The cause of such diseases lies in the malnutrition of the majority of citizens.
Eating habits instilled in childhood have a negative impact on health in the future. People understand this. If in past years doctors adjusted the diet of their patients in order to relieve them of excess weight and diseases of the digestive system, now people 30-40 years old turn to specialists in order to prevent the development of obesity. This is a great trend, but fast food sellers have caught on to it.
Many restaurants and food delivery services indicate that correct and wholesome food can be ordered at their points of sale. However, you should not trust advertising. Somewhere they really try to cook according to the principles of proper nutrition, but somewhere they just talk about it. Therefore, it is so important to understand how to eat during the day and what you can fill your plate with without harm to your health.
It is believed that only food prepared at home can be considered healthy. However, not every person has time to do daily cooking. Therefore, you often have to eat the food prepared by the chefs. However, the choice always remains with the person. He can always buy mashed potatoes with a cutlet, or fish with vegetables.
Proper nutrition is not a diet, but a lifestyle that will keep you healthy for years to come. However, it would be wrong to recommend the classic PP to everyone without exception. The menu must be made taking into account the existing diseases. It should be balanced, contain vitamins and minerals. This is the only way to prevent the development of cardiovascular pathologies and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
There should be no harmful products on the menu. Sausage, sausages, any processed red meat, refined carbohydrates, canned food, too salty foods should be excluded from the diet. The menu should be enriched with protein products, including: cottage cheese, eggs, low-fat fish and meat, vegetables and fruits.
In terms of drawing up a correct and healthy diet, the Internet is not always helpful. Often people come to see me who are convinced that they know everything about PP. It can be very difficult to convince them of the correctness of their ideas.
So, the most common misconception is the myth that you cannot eat food after 6 pm. However, this theory has no scientific basis. If a person consumes food for the last time at 18:00 and eats breakfast at 7:00, then he does not receive food for more than 12 hours. Nutritionists regard this as fasting. Such long breaks in food intake have a negative impact on health. The longer a person goes hungry, the higher the risk of food breakdown. He threatens with gluttony.
Another myth concerns the need to drink 2-3 liters of water per day. Although it has been proven that excess water leads to disruption of the oxidative processes of fat cells. Therefore, scientists believe that you need to drink, but the average rate of water for an adult is 1.5 liters per day. Moreover, it can be juice, tea and even broth.
I want to dispel another myth that food cannot be washed down with tea or coffee. For some reason, many people withstand an hour before taking a serving of liquid. It has been scientifically proven that "gastric erosion" does not occur. Drinking after meals does not harm the digestion process."

“Eating the right diet helps you maintain health, maintain a stable weight and stay in great shape. Many people are aware of this, but continue to consume unhealthy foods every day.
These include:
Sweet soda. These drinks supply the body with a huge amount of sugar, caffeine, dyes and preservatives.
Trans fats - In America, they have been banned for use in the food industry since 2015. They do not carry nutritional value, but only poison the body, contribute to hormonal disruptions, obesity, and the development of heart and vascular diseases.
Fast food. This is a real storehouse of all that harmful that can be in food. Fast food contains carcinogens, preservatives, sugars, trans fats, monosodium glutamate. The calorie content of fast food is great. At one time, a person eats the daily rate of kcal. This threatens not only obesity, but also other health problems.
Frozen meals. Foods that have been frozen lose most of their nutritional value. They are often defrosted and re-frozen repeatedly during transport. This does not affect the freshness of the food in the best way.
Ketchup and mayonnaise. They contain many additives, trans fats and preservatives. Their use in food negatively affects the work of the heart and blood vessels, promotes an increase in blood pressure and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in the vessels.
Alcoholic drinks. Alcohol is harmful, this is an indisputable fact. It destroys the nervous system, leads to personality degradation, and negatively affects the body as a whole.
Monosodium glutamate. This additive is designated on the labels as E-621. Monosodium glutamate is a flavor enhancer, so people eat foods containing it in large quantities. It also contributes to food addiction."
