Biggest Diet Myths

beer belly

  1. Fat-free food leads to fat-free bodies. (A moderate amount of fat can also lower the glycemic index of a meal, helping you feel satisfied for longer. )
  2. Energy bars will power weight loss. (Power Bars are processed foods. And processed foods, almost to a rule, can sabotage even the most committed diet)
  3. Grazing will boost metabolism and help you lose weight. (While going too long without eating can set you up for diet catastrophes, “grazing can also rack up calories,” )
  4. Saturated fat causes cellulite, and it’s bad for you anyway. (Cellulite is no different than other body fat; some fat just gets stored as cellulite in some parts of the body. And any excess body fat is caused by excess calories, no matter whether those calories come from )
  5. You can eat whatever you want, as long as you exercise. (he amount of exercise needed to lose even a single pound — if diet is not rethought — is more than most people can do)
  6. Beer gives you a belly. (Alcohol, however, may be in a separate class, as far as liquid calories go. )
  7. Juice detoxes, smoothies and diet sodas are effective weight-loss tools. (Our bodies today interpret beverages as having fewer calories than they actually do and find them less satisfying than solid food and so we eat more to compensate. )
