They are generally considered as safe to consume as conventionally grown foods. Some research has revealed higher levels of antioxidants, such as vitamin C, in organic produce. Antioxidants help your body fend off and heal from infections, disease and damage caused by toxins called free radicals. Determining the differences is difficult, because nutrient content of produce often depends on the soil in which the plants are grown. ]]> 2021-01-13 14:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lveronico1/e8ih1js7avvccid0/wish/1083287612 Amelia https://padlet.com/lveronico1/e8ih1js7avvccid0/wish/1083347869 The first this to look at is the serving size because all of the information on the label is based on the serving size.

Some make you put on more weight than others. An website called "Eating Well" showed a study. They said "Frank Hu, M.D., chair of the department of nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and his team examined 20-plus years of data from more than 120,000 women and men, looking specifically at how changes in the types of fat that people ate affected their weight. They found that when people increased saturated and trans fats in their diets, they were more likely to put on pounds, while upping intake of unsaturated fats had no such connection—and was even linked to weight loss."

Some fat is healthly while the others are unhealthy. Good fats are: Monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats are known as the “good fats” because they are good for your heart, your cholesterol, and your overall health. These fats can help to: Lower the risk of heart disease and stroke. The bad fats:

Saturated fat. This type of fat comes mainly from animal sources of food, such as red meat, poultry and full-fat dairy products.
Trans fat. This type of fat occurs naturally in some foods in small amounts.

Size matters. Serving size is always the first item on the label. All other information is based on that serving size.
Look for fat: the good, the bad, and the really bad. Check the saturated fat and trans fat content of the food. For a general healthful diet, keep saturated fat and cholesterol low and avoid trans fats altogether.
Is it worth its salt? Compare the sodium content to the calories per serving.
Figure out the fiber. Aim for foods that have 5 g of fiber per serving.
Stay away from added sugars.

Most people attribute it to excess calories stored on your chest, but there are many types of fats - but the main problems are saturated and trans fats. Saturated fats and trans fats both increase the amount of HDL(high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol inside of your blood and decrease the amount of LDL(low-density-lipoprotein) cholesterol in your blood. While LDL cholesterol clogs arteries and veins, HDL cholesterol helps remove other forms of cholesterol from your blood. However, unsaturated fats are also good for you, helping boost your HDL cholesterol, reducing your risk for heart disease and keeping you healthy. So what actually causes weight gain? Most weight gain is attributed to not if you eat fat, but how much fat you consume. One gram of fat contains 9 calories, while carbs and proteins contain 4 calories per gram. This means that if you ate an equivalent amount of protein and fat, you would get more calories from fat than protein, meaning that it isn't about eating fat or not - it's about the amount of fat that you eat. ]]> 2021-03-23 20:05:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lveronico1/e8ih1js7avvccid0/wish/1345010117 Clara Franklin crfranklin2 https://padlet.com/lveronico1/e8ih1js7avvccid0/wish/1345093510 Corn syrup is a sweetener made from corn starch because it can cause heart disease or diabetes.

Artificial sweeteners are substances that are chemically made to be like sugar, such as aspartame, saccharin, and sucralose. These sweeteners can be incredibly sweeter than normal sugar, and are used in products like "sugar free" soda. On the other hand, natural sweeteners are sweet, can be found in nature, but aren't sugar, such as honey and maple syrup. Our bodies can only digest sugar and natural sweeteners and use their calories, but the artificial sweeteners do not give us any calories, so we should generally avoid artificial sweeteners.

The long answer to this is that fruit juice usually contains more sugars than fruit, since insulin response was higher after consuming orange juice than oranges. Insulin is a hormone that eats up sugar to regulate blood sugar, and the more of them that are there the higher risk of diabetes there is, so fruit juice has a higher chance of causing diabetes than fruit, making fruit healthier than fruit juice.

However, if you just drink fruit juice, there's a blood sugar spike which leads to a blood sugar dip, which will leave you hungry. Lastly, drinking fruit juice leads to increased calorie consumption.
