False or Fact: The Common Foods We've Been Lied About

False or Fact: The Common Foods We've Been Lied About   Let’s be real — nutrition advice can feel like a never-ending game of telephone, with information getting twisted  and misunderstood as it's passed along. Many of us have seen a food go from a normal everyday staple to a villain overnight, only to be welcomed back years later as if nothing happened. For instance, butter was tossed aside for margarine(only for margarine to later be outed as worse because it contains trans-fats). We live in an era where myths often outweigh facts, and misleading headlines spread faster than actual science. In this short blog, we’ll explore three common food myths that lingered far longer than they deserved, myths that shaped the food market, influenced dietary guidelines, and even changed what we put on our plates. And of course, we’ll highlight the facts around them. It’s time to separate fact from food fiction. 1. The egg-xtremely misunderstood Egg Myth : Eggs are bad for your heart hea...

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS "GOOD SUGAR"?

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS “GOOD SUGAR”? Sugar is everywhere—from the natural sweetness in fruits to the added sugars in packaged snacks. But when it comes to health, the story isn’t as simple as “good” versus “bad.” So, is there really such a thing as good sugar ? Let’s unpack this. Many people believe that sugar from natural sources, like a fruit smoothie, is “good,” while sugar from cakes or biscuits is “bad.” In reality, from a calorie and blood sugar perspective, your body treats sugars from fruit smoothies, cakes, or honey in much the same way, once digested, they contribute similar amounts of energy and can cause similar glucose spikes. A glucose spike happens when the sugar level in your blood shoots up quickly after eating, especially from foods like sugary drinks, sweets, or white bread or simply carbs.  However, the way sugar is packaged in food matters a lot for your health, and this is where the difference between naturally occurring sugars and added sugars comes in.
