4 Foods You Should NEVER Eat

You know what foods are good for you… but do you know what
foods you should absolutely, never eat? These foods aren’t just
artery-clogging; they’re horrible for your overall health and wellbeing.
So do whatever you can to stay clear.

1. Trans Fat. This is known as a complete heart killer. It’s a
man made fat (hydrogenated oils), originally designed to
increase the shelf life of most foods (think peanut butter,
margarine, cookies, etc.) Health organizations all agree that
no more than 2 grams of trans fat should be consumed per
day. Why? It’s linked to increasing LDL or “bad”
cholesterol… it increases triglycerides… and causes
inflammation. Basically, it’s a power-packed artery blocker.
So make sure you read ALL food labels. Make sure there
are no trans fats. Also, look in the ingredients. If it says
“hydrogenated oil” then don’t buy it. Even though the label
says it is free of trans fats, it still contains them due to the
hydrogenated oils in the ingredients.

Trans fat foods include - cookies, crackers, cakes, muffins, pie crusts, pizza dough, and breads such as hamburger buns some stick margarine and vegetable shortening, pre-mixed cake mixes, pancake mixes, and chocolate drink mixes ,fried foods, including donuts, French fries, chicken nuggets, and hard taco shells, snack foods, including chips, candy, and packaged or microwave popcorn and frozen dinners

2. Margarine. Avoid this one, since it has trans fats and is not
good for you. You’re better off eating real butter. Avoid the
marketing hype that it’s good for your heart. It’s not.

3. “Chinese” Food. What we here in America call Chinese
food is absolutely horrible for you. It’s loaded with MSG (a
form of salt) and boatloads of fat. The sodium content alone
will provide you with about a week’s worth of the
recommended daily allowance. If you absolutely love it, we
recommend having it no more than once a month.

4. Diet Soda. Believe it or not, these calorie-free concoctions
can actually make you fat! A study at Purdue University
found evidence that the artificial sweeteners used may mess
with your body’s metabolism, inducing you to overeat! Either
way, you should probably just stick to water and tea. And if
you absolutely must have soda, have the sugary kind… but
sparingly!
