3 Myths About Healthy Eating That It's Time to Stop Believing: Experts' Opinions

02.11.2023 20:45

Proper nutrition has been a fashionable topic for several years now, so it has become overgrown with myths and stereotypes.

Of course, you shouldn't believe misconceptions.

What are the 3 most persistent myths?

Only rich people can afford healthy eating

Many people try to justify themselves with this argument, saying that they don’t want to spend most of their income on food. But this is a big mistake.

Eating right can be very economical if you approach it correctly. For example, a pack of dumplings will cost about the same as a serving of quinoa, but the difference between these products is colossal. Dumplings are not healthy, but quinoa contains all the amino acids necessary for the body.

Also, a kilogram of sausages will cost more than a kilogram of quality fruit. And if semi-finished products are a source of harmful substances, then fruit consists only of vitamins and antioxidants. Therefore, the choice is yours: you can look for excuses, or you can improve your health and figure.

With proper nutrition you constantly feel hungry

On the contrary, when eating "empty" carbohydrates (chips, semi-finished products, ready-made breakfasts), the feeling of hunger comes much faster. If you eat right, you can maintain a feeling of satiety for a long period, experts believe.

Eating right is useless

If you evaluate the appearance of people who adhere to healthy eating, the fallacy of this statement will be obvious. Healthy eating is the easiest way to achieve health and beauty.
