Throughout our lives, we consume a wide variety of foods, many of which are excellent and others extremely harmful to our health. The key is to find a balance in our diet and to avoid as much as possible the things that, instead of nourishing us, damage us.
To achieve a good diet, it is vital to be informed
And to know what to eat and what not to eat, or at least to know it to measure the quantities we consume of them.
Today we are going to give you a list of 5 foods of which you should measure the amount you consume as much as possible. Attention.
Salt
Consuming refined salt can be negative for the proper functioning of our heart if we do so in amounts greater than 0.2 to 1.25 grams per day.
Refined sugar
Delicious but very harmful, refined sugar does not provide any nutrients, only energy. It is made up of glucose and fructose; the problem is the way we consume it, because fruits and vegetables already contain sugar on their own. Refined sugars are causes of obesity, nutritional imbalance, cavities, and more.
Refined flour
The finer and whiter it is, the less fiber, vitamins, and minerals it contains. White bread, bran bread, and pastries (like donuts, for example) contain no vitamins or minerals, while they promote cavities, cancer, cholesterol, and diabetes.
Refined rice
The refining process that rice undergoes removes all the energy and vitamin content it may have.
Cow's milk
It is considered the main cause of allergies in children. It is high in saturated fats and cholesterol. Some studies link it to diabetes and even osteoporosis because, due to being low in magnesium, it prevents bones from absorbing calcium.
Measuring the consumption of these foods will bring great benefits to your health, you will see. The key is to stay attentive to what you eat and in what quantities, as unfortunately, these 5 foods are everywhere and in everything we tend to consume.
