5 products that are not as good as we thought!

They seem more like a marketing trick, because it turns out that there are products that are not so good or healthy for us.....

It is incredible, but even with all the technology we have available, the food industry has not been able to weigh the super industrialization of food and the health of those of us who eat it. I mean that today there is greater awareness about “eating healthy” and the products that are sold to us as healthy seem more like a marketing trick, because it turns out that there are products that are not so good or healthy for us. They produce them with the label that they are our best option, but by trying to get more and more and more, they continue to leave a lot to be desired.

Be very careful, I leave you this list of some of the most dangerous:

Juices: They are full of sugar that only makes you gain weight. Besides, they are also full of artificial chemicals. Corn syrup, sugar or brown sugar, fructose, juice concentrate, all these words you have to avoid on your juice labels. Alternative: Homemade juices and if you are going to sweeten them even more, better use stevia. Teas sweetened with honey are also a great option. ** Whole grains: ** Of all, perhaps the most dangerous. Gluten plus other substances in white bread cause inflammation. Which is the root of almost all diseases. Its vitamins and minerals are difficult to absorb.** Alternatives: Coconut flour, it has a lot of fiber that is very good for you. Artificial sweeteners: Aspartame is related to many adverse effects on your health. Splenda, for example, stimulates your appetite and will make you crave more carbohydrates.** Alternatives: Stevia, Raw Honey, 100% NATURAL sweeteners. Peanut Butter: ** Delicious, but dangerous. Harms gut health, it’s some in omega-6 fats that cause inflammation. Alternative: Almond butter, Granola: ** We are talking about the processed granola that they sell us (bars). The honey they contain has no pollen and is pasteurized at such high temperatures that it is left without everything that makes it good. Alternative: make your own granola at home or buy a 100% natural one. Remember that I am referring to products that we buy. It is one thing for you to squeeze oranges from the tree that grows in your house, than for you to buy juice at the store.
