CHIC Podcast #72: Nutrition Myths
Recently an article appeared in the Chicago Tribune about nutrition myths. Pat Plavcan and Holly Maloney, our resident nutritionists took some time to dispell those myths for us on this weeks show. Here they are:
1. Calories eaten at night are more fattening.
2. Fasting helps rid the body of toxins.
3. Skipping breakfast helps you lose weight.
4. Your body can’t tell the difference between honey and sugar.
5. Low-fat means low calories.
6. You can still eat shrimp and other shellfish on a cholesterol-lowering diet.
7. Multigrain foods are made with whole grains.
8. Olive oil has fewer calories than other fats.
9. Frozen vegetables are just as nutritious as fresh.
10. Foods boasting ”0 trans fats” contain ”good” fats.
11. Organic food always is more nutritious.
Thanks for listening.
