There are numerous dieting myths flying around the internet and in the magazines. Everybody seems to have a different opinion when it comes to losing weight and dieting. Many unhealthy diets are talented at disguising themselves as good for you. Here are only some dieting myths you should avoid:
1) Virgin olive oil has fewer calories than other cooking oils: far from being correct. Olive, sunflower seeds, nuts, peanut, corn oil and all oils contain almost the same number of calories regardless form what they are made. Virgin olive oil contains about 900 calories and it is made completely of fats. But virgin olive oil is much extra good for you than any other cooking oil you can ever use. It helps reduce the amount of bad cholesterol form your body while keeping the good cholesterol level at a beneficial level.. You can also use olive oil to clean your mouth, keep your teeth white and make stronger your gums. All you have to do is keep a spoon full of virgin olive oil in your mouth.
2)From all the meats you can consume fish is the less fatty choice:I don't know how it happened but countless people think that fish contain fewer fats than any other type of meat, including low fat meat like chicken meat. The truth is that 100 grams of turkey meat contains only 3 grams of fat while 100 grams of tuna contains 13 grams of fats. You ought to still eat fish even if it is fattier and contains extra calories because the fats it contains are good nourishing fats. Fish contain omega 3 fats which help you prevent cardiovascular diseases.
3)You get overweight because of fat: Salt isn't fattening if you consume it alone, but it leads to water retention. On average you are eating about 10 grams of salt every day but your body only needs only 4 grams of salt per day. Just 2 grams of the 10 come from the salt you personally add in your cooking. various foods you eat contain heaps of salt in them. You shouldn't stop eating salt and salty foods thinking that because of it you are gaining weight. Your body has its own mechanisms of defense. If you eat salty foods you feel the need to drink lots of water. All that water helps you get rid of the excess salt found in your body without making you fatter. So salt is nonfattening.
4) By eating fewer food your stomach will become smaller:you must be really gullible to believe this. You can starve yourself for 1 week and you won't get a smaller belly. All you succeed in doing is starve your body which is always bad. Your belly is super elastic and it expands when you eat food. After you have digested all the food the tummy contains it regains its initial size . When you start eating fewer your stomach won't start shrinking and become the size of a nut. Your stomach will stay at its usual size but all the gastric juice that gets accumulated in it will make you feel a lot of pain. So don't do it.
5) Butter has more calories than margarine:if you are on a diet you should avoid eating them both.But if you just have to gobble one of them you should know that both have about the same caloric value, 360 calories per 100 grams. What differentiates butter from margarine is the quality of the fats they contain. Margarine contains vegetable unsaturated fats which are unhealthy while butter contains only saturated good for your health fats. Your body has an easier time using the saturated fats, but if you like margarine you can eat it because they both contain about the same amount of calories.
