Author \ China Health Network

Many foods look nutritious and delicious, but there are actually health mines. American nutritionists point out that some people only choose skim salad dressing, low-fat peanut butter and so on. When shopping, some people even regard dried fruits as healthy energy bars as snacks, and even eat healthy sushi for dinner and yogurt beneficial to the intestines every day. In fact, these foods are full of traps. Eating too much is not only unhealthy, but also may gain weight, which is not worth the loss.

American health information website Livestrong consulted nutritionists Lauren Antonucci and Lisa Moskovitz of Nutrition Energy, a well-known sports nutrition center in new york, and listed some seemingly healthy ingredients, including skim salad dressing with ultra-high sodium content and sushi rolls with ridiculously high calories, to teach you how to identify food traps.

Food for hiding health mines

Skim salad dressing:

If you are concerned about your blood pressure, don't touch the skim salad dressing. Lisa Moskowitz, a nutritionist, pointed out that eating two tablespoons of skim salad dressing is equivalent to eating 500 milligrams of sodium. Don't use skim salad dressing on the market. I suggest you mix aged red wine vinegar with lemon juice, and add a little seasoning such as pepper, turmeric and mustard seeds to make a low-fat and low-sodium sauce.

Low-fat peanut butter:

When manufacturers make low-fat peanut butter, the fat content is reduced, but more sugar is added, so the calorie of low-fat peanut butter may be similar to that of original peanut butter, but the carbohydrate is more 1 times. Lisa Moskowitz, a nutritionist, points out that eating plain peanut butter may be better, because full fat tastes fuller and you will eat less.

Dried fruit:

Every 1/4 cup of dried fruit (about 100g per cup) may contain as much as100 calories, so eating dried fruit may unconsciously eat a pile of calories. Nutritionist Lauren Antonuzi suggests that eating fresh or frozen fruits will make you feel fuller and have fewer calories.

Energy bar:

Nutritionist Lisa Moskowitz said that energy bars are basically candy bars filled with vitamins and protein. Energy bars seem to be healthy snacks, but they contain 65,438+0 times more fat and carbohydrates than chocolate brownies. In order to avoid eating a bunch of empty calories, it is recommended to buy an energy bar with less than 180 calories, less than 5g fat and at least 5g fiber.

Sushi:

The sushi roll looks healthy and doesn't weigh much, but it is a "deep-sea bomb" in the calorie world! A sushi roll contains up to 500 calories. To eat sushi and avoid the obesity trap, nutritionist Lisa Moskowitz suggested avoiding sushi rolls containing tempura, cream cheese, grated cheese and spicy mayonnaise.

Yogurt:

All forms of yogurt are good sources of calcium and vitamin D, but some brands of yogurt products contain fat and sugar equivalent to a jam doughnut. Nutritionist Lisa Moskowitz reminds you to make sure that you buy original low-fat yogurt before you buy it. If you feel tasteless, you can add some fresh fruit and honey yourself. If you can, you can choose Greek yogurt, because Greek yogurt has 1 times more protein and half less carbohydrates than traditional yogurt.
