(gentle trance music) - i just noticed my headlooks like a giant potato. so, healthy food is somethingthat we all feel that we know at least a good amount about. for example, carrots, mmmm! they taste good and they're good for you. and, of course, they're way better for you raw than cooked, right? i mean, it's pretty common knowledge
that boiling veggies takesall the nutrients out of them, or so you thought. sorry friends, but, onceagain, you've been lied to. in this video, i'm going to take the seven most commonly believed myths that you likely stillbelieve about healthy food and explain the truth behind them. we're going to be looking at the advice that you've likely heard about what to eat
and what not to eat. for example, what if i told you that boiling carrots actually increases the nutritional value by breaking down the tough walls surroundingthe beta carotene? oh yeah, it's true, andthat's just the beginning. this is 7 myths you stillbelieve about healthy eating. fat-free is better than full fat. let's start withsomething that most people
consider to be a no-brainer. low-fat and fat-free foods are always the healthier choice, right? well, when it comes to certainmeat and dairy products, yes. but more often than not, food companies are replacing that fat with sometihing potentially much worse for you: sugar. see, when manufacturers artificially adjust what's in our food,
they need to trade infat for something else that's low-cost but stillgives them the ability to call their product low-fat. the truth is, in most cases,although fat content decreases, calories have actually increased. thus, eating those items canquickly lead to weight gain. but these sour patch kidssaid that they're low-fat. you don't wanna be that guy, nope. nuts are junk food.
this myth has likely stemmed from the fact that you can find many varieties of nuts next to the potato chipsin the grocery store aisle. but, the idea that they'rejust as bad for you as junk food is absolutely false. in fact, researchers atharvard university found that women who ate atleast a handful of nuts at least five times aweek were 20% less likely to develop conditions such as diabetes,
cardiovascular diseaseand even certain cancers. nuts are actually anincredible source of protein, as well as other nutrients. so, make sure the timesthat you feel like a nut outweigh the times that you don't. eliminating carbs makes you healthier. we've all heard about thefad diets that are out there that tell you to go carb-free and you'll lose tons of weight.
and although reducingcertain types of carbs in your diet can be good foryou, generally, the benefits of taking in carbohydratessurpass skipping them. seven major studies all concluded that people who ate grain carbohydrates were up to 30% less likelyto develop heart disease. see, what it really comes down to is choosing the right type of carbs, not eliminating them altogether.
try going for whole grainsover the processed food carbs and you'll be making a muchwiser and healthier decision. taking in extra protein makes you strong. many people still claim thatif you want to toughen up, taking in excess protein is the way to go. and, while it's true that proteinhelps develop lean muscle, it won't do that by itself. you need a healthy diet of carbs and fats, not to mention, mostimportantly, exercise.
plus, taking in too much can actually lead to negative effects. a number of studies haveshown that high protein intake can actually increase the probability of developing kidneystones by as much as 250%. and trust me, you do notwanna pee out a marble. additionally, if your proteinintake completely overshadows your intake of carbs and healthy fats, your muscles are going to suffer anyway.
this is because you're simply not getting enough nutrientsto fuel your body. fresh fruits and vegetablesare healthier than frozen. as much as it seems likethis one must be true, it is, in fact, a myth. you see, when companiespackage frozen produce, they quick-freeze it and, in doing so, halt the loss of vitaminand mineral content. in contrast, when you select, let's say,
a peach from a pile atthe fresh produce section at the grocery store,you're actually holding a piece of fruit that has beenpicked, shipped and stored, all of which could takeseveral days, or even weeks. during its journey, thisproduce loses natural enzymes which are released from it as it ripens, and this lessens the nutritional content. so, frozen is actuallybetter than the alternative. but, of course, if youwant the healthiest option,
fresh fruits and veggiesright off the vine is always the best choice. brandy before bed means a healthier sleep. there are so many peoplethat swear by a nightcap, a tradition that's been handed down by as far back as the 1700s. but, the truth is thatit's simply not true. alcohol consumptionbefore bed has been proven to actually increase wakefulness
and completely disrupt sleep well after the individual has gone to bed. a series of recentstudies have shown that, though the drink may makepeople fall asleep faster, they would wake up as soonas the alcohol wore off, which, of course, means them not getting a decent night's rest. the study also revealed adrop in rapid eye movement in those who drank, whichmeans that the memory
and retention areas of the brain may have been affected ontop of the person's dreams. so, in other words, you get hammered, you're gonna pass out, but then you're just notgonna have a solid sleep, so nuh-uh, don't do it. the best source of calcium is milk. ah milk, it does a body good, but not as good as you might think.
while it does contain calcium, it's pretty far down the list of foods that we take in the most calcium from, and the list might surprise you. it includes navy beans, yogurt, sardines, leafy greens and almonds,just to name a few. in addition, drinking an excess of milk can actually lead to prostatecancer and heart disease. so, it may be wise to think twice
about trying to get a calcium overload by drinking a full gallon of 2%. and while we're on the subject of milk, let's bust another myth right now. drinking milk does notincrease mucus production and, therefore, there's notruth to the old wives' tale that you shouldn't drinkmilk when you have a cold. that's just a little bonus fact for you. and now, you guys arejust a little bit smarter
