Health Tips: Nowadays there has been a lot of awareness among people about health. Everyone wants their food not only delicious, but also healthy. In this desire, many times we consider some things healthy by listening to social media, advertisement and others, but the truth is something else.

Seeing tags like low fat, sugar free, natural or organic on packaging, we think that the product is beneficial, while hidden sugar, chemicals or calories can harm our health.

So let’s know 6 big misconceptions to healthy food that you should be cautious:

1. Brown bread means healthy bread?

Often people believe that brown bread is more healthy than white bread. But most of the brown bread found in India is shown to be healthy by putting only color. They also contain high amount of maida and sugar.

2. Fortified food provides complete health?

Oil, wheat or grains are increased with fortifications, but these natural sources such as fruits, vegetables or sunlight cannot replace vitamins.

3. Does the body detox after drinking juice?

Your liver and kidney are the real detox machine. Juice is less fiber and more sugar, which can increase blood sugar level instead of weight loss.

4. Instant oats are always healthy?

Flavor oats often have more sugar, test enhancer and preservatives. Chocolate/Masala Oats is not actually right for health.

5. Is coarse grain beneficial for everyone?

Coarse grains such as millet or ragi are beneficial, but not for everyone’s body. If they are not cooked properly or eaten in large quantities, then there may be problems like digestive problems and thyroid.

6. ‘Sugar free’ means without sugar?

Sugar free products often contain artificial sweeteners or hidden sugar that can cause damage in a long time.

Not every healthy looking food is really healthy. Instead of closing their eyes on the claims of packaging, it is necessary to become aware, read carefully and choose to eat only by understanding the needs of our body. The correct information is the first step of good health.
