The article warns that many foods often deemed 'healthy' may not provide the benefits people think. It highlights misconceptions surrounding protein bars, organic foods, veggie chips, and bottled fruit juices. For instance, while protein bars are loaded with protein, they frequently contain high sugar levels which can offset their health benefits. Similarly, organic products can still be unhealthy, and veggie chips may contain excessive calories and fats. Bottled fruit juices often lose nutrients in processing and may add sugars. Health experts aim to clarify these misunderstandings about food options.
Despite being marketed as healthful, many food items like protein bars can contain high amounts of sugar, making them less beneficial than perceived.
The misconception that all organic products are inherently healthy can lead consumers to overlook high-calorie or sugary options labeled as organic.
Veggie chips often come loaded with calories, fats, and salts, which can make them just as unhealthy as traditional potato chips.
Bottled fruit juices may be perceived as healthy, yet they often undergo processing that strips nutrients and adds sugars.
