The truth about healthy eating
Food experts are always telling us what we should
and shouldn't eat, but they often give us different
advice. Our food writer, Teresa Gold, has had a look
at all the information to work out what is fact and
what is fiction .
1 _______________
A full-English breakfast will certainly stop you feeling
hungry, but it's high in calories which means that you'll
put on weight if you have it regularly. A healthier
option is to have just the egg. Boil it instead of frying
it, and eat it with a piece of toast made with brown
bread. Breakfast cereals are very high in sugar, so
if you feel like cereal, have muesli - with no added
sugar. You can also get your first vitamins of the day
by drinking a glass of freshly-squeezed orange juice.
2 ________________
Fruit and vegetables contain the vitamins and minerals
we need to stay healthy. But five is actually a fictional
number thought up by an American nutritionist. She
looked at what the average person ate and doubled it.
According to more recent research, the right number is
actually eight. The research shows that people who
have eight pieces of fruit and vegetables a day are
much less likely to suffer from heart disease than
those who eat three.
3 ________________
This particular fruit has had some bad publicity
because dentists say it can harm our teeth. While it's
true that apples do contain a little sugar, they are also
a source of fibre. Nutritionists say that we need about
18g of fibre a day, and a medium apple - peel included
- contains about 3g. Some varieties contain more
fibre than others, so you should choose carefully.
4 _________________
The key to good health is a balanced diet which
contains fats and carbohydrates as well as proteins,
vitamins, and minerals. Fats may be high in calories,
but they also contain vitamins. According to the
World Cancer Research Fund, you should only have
about 500 g of red meat per week - a steak is about
100 g. One type of food on its own won't kill or cure
you, but eating the right amount of the right food will stop you getting ill.
