As the saying goes, ¡°You are what you eat.¡± Is the food you eat considered healthy?
Let us refer to a list generated by the American website ¡°Virtual Medical Doctor¡±
on the current six types of life-threatening food.
1. Deep-fried oily food
Cut down on your intake of oily food that is deep-fried, including deep-fried vegetables and deep-fried bean products. These deep-fried foods all contain large amounts of fat.¡£
2. Western food
Although the various Western dishes especially Western fast food only occupy a corner each on the huge dinner plate, their energy value far exceeds that of an ordinary food. For instance, coleslaw contains eight hundred calories. Needless to say, the calorie content of a steak will be even more shocking.
3. Food with exaggerated nutritious content
Many food products have been labeled as healthy food, and this includes fruit beverages, vegetarian biscuits, as well as kids fruity snacks. They usually come with labels, stating exaggerated nutritious content. The reality is that their nutritious content is not as high as they claim.
4. Bread with fillings
Bread contains high nutritious value, but it is different when they are taken with fillings such as chocolate, fruits and butter. The sugar content and energy value would increase, and the nutritious value is lowered. Hence, it is better to select plain bread or the ever-nutritious whole meal bread.
5. Cakes
Cakes are made with ingredients of high energy value, such as castor sugar, oil, artificial flavorings and colorings. Try to cut down on their intake.
6. ¡°Delicacies¡± spotted whilst shopping
It is very easy to feel famished while browsing through the supermarket aisles, your eyes are treated to a feast of pastries and cakes, and the juicy meat products on display. Such temptation could cause us to eat double portions of our normal food intake before we realize it. Bring along your own water and biscuits with low energy value, and this will save you from being tempted by the food on display and start over-eating.
Conclusion
More and more ¡°delicacies¡± such as hamburgers, French fries, salads, barbecued meat, pizzas, desserts, etc, are made widely available. They are even offered for home deliveries! A large-size- burger meal consists of 1520 calories, and that is the energy value a middle-aged woman requires for a day. As people start to develop a passion for novelty dining and eating habits, they tend to overlook the basic foods that bring about health ¨C fruits and vegetables. PHHP Phyto Fiber, PHHP Phyto Greens, PHHP Aloe Vera Juice, PHHP Colostrum, PHHP Royal Spora Lingzhi and etc are the foods made from natural ingredients from which we get a healthy life.
