Some Not So “Healthy” Snacks To Think Twice About

Some foods deemed as healthy may not really be.

Just because some healthy foods are combined doesn’t mean they are good for you. Take this anecdote about a woman who wondered why she gained weight while eating doctor suggested oatmeal. Well, she made oatmeal cookies that’s why!

Here are some foods to think twice about:

• Granola bars. Some are healthy, but the sugar in many are through the roof. Defeats the purpose, right?

• Yogurt parfaits. Sure, yogurt is great for you and so is fruit, but add the extra sugar and granola and you may as well eat a candy bar!

• Most is loaded, again, with sugar.

• Protein bars. Most contain unhealthy stuff like palm oil, vegetable oil, sugar, artificial sweeteners, artificial colors, and preservatives, Eat Greek yogurt and fruit instead.

• Fruit in canned syrup. Yes, more sugar.

Basically, if a healthy food has lots of sugar, walk away.
