Bad Health Food - A New Series of Articles
Today we begin a series of articles on health food that isn’t healthy. We all know that obesity is an epidemic in North America, and so do food manufacturers, so they now label foods as “fat free” or “low carb” or whatever.
Unfortunately, just because something is “fat free” doesn’t mean it’s good for you. A product can be fat free, but high in sugar, and we all know that excessive amounts of sugar are not healthy, and will not help you lose weight.
I’ll pick some of my favorite non-healthy health foods and write about them over the next two weeks.
In the mean-time, read the labels of everything you eat, because if we are informed consumers, we will eventually stop buying the “pretend” health food products.
Tomorrow: reduced fat peanut butter.
