5 Junk Foods That Are GOOD For You!

and 5 that "claim" to be healthy but are BAD

Have

you ever tried to figure out the nuances

of a good diet and a healthy lifestyle? Isnt all

the jargon and maze of technical terms on nutrition
labels quite confusing to a layman? Theres just so
much noise. Our diet needs our utmost attention and
more importantly, a lot of carefully made choices.
Sadly enough, with all the media attention and
marketing campaigns, it is very easy to be misled
and make improper food choices. Not only do certain
food products carry zero nutritional value, but
they might also end up doing some serious damage to
your body.
Have you ever wondered if overhyped health foods
are actually adding value to your health or are
just empty calories packed into attractive labels?
Lets explore the inner stories behind 5 of such
self-proclaimed Health Foods, which are actually
harmful for your body and 5 junk foods that are
actually good.

5 Health Foods You Must Avoid!

F rom

hidden calories and disguised fat content

to empty nutrition, these foods can indeed damage

your system in more ways than one. Read on to know
more about each one of them.

1. Whole Grain

O nce

considered as the staple diet by more

than half of the world, whole grains are now under

a scanner. From autism and allergies to depression,
!""#$%&'()#$*)*$+*,-#.#/012#34"5678#9:;"%)'%8&#
"#$#%&'''()*+*,,)-..(/01&203&403*&5*6,%7&8&+*,,9*$$&:#;$&

5 Junk Foods That Are GOOD For You!

and 5 that "claim" to be healthy but are BAD

diabetes and even cancers, these are the culpit in

more than a dozen ailments that affect the world
today. Lets quickly look at some of the reasons
you need to steer away from the whole grain hype:
Phytic acid This is a mineral blocker that
is broken down when the grains are sprouted.
Many have called it anti-nutrient and for a
good reason. The phytic acid prevents the
absorption of essential nutrients like calcium,
magnesium, copper, iron and zinc.
Insulin production The modern versions of
ground flour carry high amounts of
carbohydrates, creating a massive imbalance in
the insulin production, eventually leading to
accumulation of excess fat.
Gluten Gluten along with lectins, the
proteins that are most difficult to digest are
also the major components of the whole grains.
These lead to severe gluten intolerance and
allergies, which happen when the immune system
considers
these
as
dangerous
and
begins
attacking the body. Experts point out that the
issue of gluten intolerance still remains
widely misdiagnosed and not treated.
Unless we drastically change the way we process and
cook our grains, these essentially remain on our
watch list as of now!

2. Agave Nectar

It

indeed

becomes

strange

situation

when

some of your most trusted aides in weight loss and

diet management turn out to be the worst foes for
your health. Agave nectar regarded as the perfect
alternative to sugar, is actually not a natural
sweetener, as against the common belief. It is
instead, loaded with high fructose content, known
on its own for the series of adverse effects it can
cause.
For the sake of concrete facts, it helps to know
that the agave nectar is not made from the sap of
the agave plant, as it is believed. On the other

and 5 that "claim" to be healthy but are BAD

hand, it is made from the agave root, which is

basically a starch, quite similar to that of corn
or rice. It also carries inulin, which is made of
fructose molecules and is a highly indigestible
fiber. Moreover, even the process by which the
agave glucose and inulin are converted into the
nectar is quite similar to the one by which the
cornstarch is processed.

3. Soy

W ritings

about the soybean date back to 3000

B.C., when the Emperor of China listed the virtues

of soybean plants for regenerating the soil for
future crops. His praises centered on the root of
the plant, not the bean. These ancient writing
suggested that the Chinese recognized the unfitness

5 Junk Foods That Are GOOD For You!

and 5 that "claim" to be healthy but are BAD

of soybeans for human consumption in their natural

form.
This ingredient, featured in everything from your
cheese to vegetables, it is instead one of the most
dreaded ones! The long range of its fallout starts
from the harmful isoflavones to the other harmful
properties of beans. While the phytoestrogens
present in soy actually mimic the action of the
bodys natural estrogen hormones, the protease
inhibitors present in the soy can actually disturb
your natural digestion process. Lets take a closer
look at how phytoestrogens and other components
present in soy can damage the human body:
The artificial estrogen action can lead to
infertility in both men and women. While it can
cause problems like low sperm count and
testosterone imbalance in men, it can lead to
menstrual problems and even cancer in women.
The high content of phytic acid prevents the
absorption of essential minerals like calcium,
copper,
zinc,
iron
and
magnesium.
Soy foods also carry goitrogens that can
potentially disrupt the bodys endocrine system
and lead to thyroid disorders.
In fact, research throws up a few startling facts
in this context. It is believed that if a baby is
only fed soy formula, he or she is actually
consuming hormones equivalent to as many as 4 birth
!""#$%&'()#$*)*$+*,-#.#/012#34"5678#9:;"%)'%8&#

control pills in a day. Similar research also shows

that babies being fed soy formula are at a greater
risk of developing the autoimmune thyroid disease.
Fermented soy is the only type of soy that is
healthy to consume because fermentation releases
nutrients and transforms soybeans into a nutritious
food.

4. Frozen Yogurt

Y ou

thought

its

made

with

the

best

of

nutritious ingredients, like milk and fruit? Hence,

it might be a surprise for you when it shows up in
the most avoidable list!

!""#$%&'()#$*)*$+*,-#.#/012#34"5678#9:;"%)'%8&#

5 Junk Foods That Are GOOD For You!

and 5 that "claim" to be healthy but are BAD

Well, to begin with, lets have a quick look at

some of the ingredients in frozen yogurt. Pure
crystalline
fructose,
dextrose,
maltodextrin,
yogurt powder and many others that are merely empty
nutrition. In fact, experts view it as an attempt
to disguise junk food with the label with a few
healthy ingredients.
Moving on, when you heat up the milk to prepare
your frozen dessert, add all the ingredients,
prepare and then let it cool, you have actually
killed
all
the
beneficial
bacteria
and
the
essential nutrients of milk. Thats why the
manufactures have to add live and active cultures
afterwards.

5. Sugar-Free Drinks

E ven

if you are sure youve avoided all the

artificial sugar content and sweeteners in your

food products, you need to watch out! Research
studies show that the hidden sugars and artificial
sweeteners in our daily diet can majorly alter the
bodys natural hormonal balance. But it doesnt
stop here. Some of the active ingredients in these
artificial sweeteners can alter the way our body
stores fat and burns energy, and can actually endup changing the way our body produces insulin.
Lets see the reasons why these sugar-free drinks
and other preparations are as hazardous as they are
claimed to be:

Some key ingredients like sorbitol and maltitol

(bulk
sweeteners),
maltodextrin
(complex
carbohydrates) are derived from corn starch
Aspartame,
another
major
ingredient,
is
carcinogenic
or
cancer-causing

nature
Obesity is a major consequence owing to the
high hidden sugar content. Other possible
diseases include heart disease, diabetes and
cancer.

2. Popcorn

C ondemned

as empty junk food for long now,

this favorite movie companion comes packed with

natural goodness. Research points out towards the
high content of polyphenols, making popcorn a
desirable and healthy snack. Found in plant foods,
polyphenols are basically a type of chemical
compound that help neutralize the free radicals in
our body which can actually damage the cells in
your body and speed up aging. The high content of
antioxidants and fiber makes popcorn a healthy
snack.
Before you jump with glee, know this; merely
grabbing a few packs of microwaveable popcorn from
the supermarket or gorging on a pack of those

strongly flavored pack of popcorn at the movie

theatre wont do. After all, those are prepared in
a synthetic environment with artificial salts and
ingredients.
Instead, go the organic and natural way to ensure
you get the benefits it offers.
For best results, heres what you should do:

Prepare your own popcorn at home using a popcorn

maker or even simply on the stovetop. Purchase a
huge pack of organic kernels and use only ghee or
expeller pressed coconut oil to prepare the corns.
Once popping is over, only use a handful of good
quality sea salt to add that tangy flavor instead
of any other synthetic spices or additives.

5. Beer

C ould

beer and good health ever go hand in

hand? Before you think its a hoax, read this.

Well, as unconventional as it might sound, your
beer does have nutritional value, which comes from
its ingredients like brewers yeast, hops, barley

Vitamin B6

Moreover, experts rate dark beer better as against

the light beer in terms of the nutrient content, as
it contains flavonoids and natural antioxidants
that help in preventing diseases. Do note that this
does not mean you can guzzle beer all the time in
the hopes of attaining good health, because, after
all, too much of anything is never good for you.
Lets look what moderate consumption of beer can
offer:
Helps increase the amount of HDL or good
cholesterol
Prevents heart, coronary and vascular disease
Prevents formation of kidney stones
Prevents and reduces blood clotting
Help ease the post-menopausal symptoms
Improves mental health, especially for women
As you can see, sometimes digging under the surface
can reveal surprising results. Never fully trust
what you see and hear as it can be simply marketing
efforts to increase bottom line.
