HEALTHY FOOD

A healthy food is one that lacks an ingredient, or does not contain it in large

quantities, that can generate a degenerative disease when its consumption is

repeated.

In addition, they are those that by their equal composition or by the particular

process of their manufacture, are distinguished from the products of ordinary

consumption. They are appropriate for the stated nutritional purpose and are

marketed indicating that they meet this objective.

FRUITSThis section includes all kinds of seasonal and tropical fruits. Here are two

exceptions: drinking a fruit juice is not the same as eating the fruit, just as the fruit

jelly does not equal a serving of it either.

INTEGRAL CEREALSHere you will find unprocessed corn, oats or whole wheat that can be found in

products such as bread or pasta, as well as brown rice. "They do not enter the

cookies, they have more fat and more sugar than the pastries.

PROTEIN FOODS This group includes white meats (poultry, rabbit), fish, vegetables, eggs and nuts.

NUTRITIONAL AVENUEHot oats on a cold morning is a must for winter survival. It's also a good way to stay

satisfied until lunch and an excellent source of soluble fiber, the kind that helps

keep your cholesterol levels low.

WATERThe human being is around 60% water (depending on men and women), hence

good hydration is essential to enjoy good health. Of course, "that our source of

hydration is water or infusions with little or no sugar," remarked nutritionists.

HEALTHY FOODS

A food may be considered healthy when it contains these words:

Fat-free

Reduced fat

Low in fat

Sugarfree

No added sugar

Diet

However, many of these foods are unhealthy, since they contain other elements -

not fat but with sugar, or without sugar but hyperproteic.

Apart, they usually have lots of carbohydrates and many artificial elements. Even

light or diet foods have caused cancer in rats after daily consumption.

FRIESIt has often been recommended to avoid the use of frying because of its high trans

fat content and thus the prevention of altered levels of cholesterol and

cardiovascular accidents, which have increased their prevalence in recent years in

children under 15 years. In addition, several studies have found that the frequent

and frequent consumption of fried foods in girls would cause infertility during

childbearing years.

GAS DRINKSFancy drinks are nothing more than water, coloring and high levels of sugar, so all

they do is gain weight and increase the chances of getting diabetes at an early

age. It is also good to point out that the excess of sugar in our body are converted

to fats and thus also favors that it deposits in the arteries that can cause vascular

accidents and heart attacks at an early age.

FOODS LIGHT, LOW IN FAT AND DIETMany of these foods contain aspartame, fructose or sucrose. But in addition to this,

it is a fact that the loss of fats and sugar returns to food more tasteless and to

counteract this, recourse is made to unhealthy amounts of artificial sweeteners,

coloring and sweeteners, which, although they do not contribute calories, possess

a power Of higher sweetness and with it the brain elevates the taste threshold.

POWDER JUICES Powdered juices possess in addition to sugar in cans quantities, high

concentrations of dyes. One of the main dyes used in Chile is tartrasin, a yellow

dye. Clinical studies have pointed out that if a child consumes many milligrams of

tartris daily, after a period of eight or ten years it could show respiratory effects on

his health, such as asthma and severe allergy.

PROCESSED MEATS Mentioned previously, are the sausages, the sausage, the bacon, the canned

meat or included in pre-cooked products, among others.
