Eating healthy is important for weight loss and living an active lifestyle, and surprisingly, many of the foods thought to be healthy are far from it. Many foods considered to be healthy have high levels of sodium or sugar, and even food labeled as “organic” or “low-fat” can be far from healthy because of the ingredients used. Instead of eating a processed or bottled version of an item, it is better to eat the actual item such as eating a piece of fruit instead of drinking fruit juice. Before buying food, take time to read the food label and research to make sure the item is actually healthy.
