Diet and weight loss must be scientific, be wary of these foods, not all vegetables on the left and right can lose weight

Some vegetables are high in calories

Not all vegetables are low in calories, and starchy root vegetables tend to be higher in calories. Starch is how plants store energy, so starchy root vegetables have a higher energy density than non-starchy vegetables.

Root or starchy vegetables such as potatoes, yam, lotus root, etc., all have certain nutrients, but lack the antioxidant factors and other phytochemicals that many non-starchy vegetables have widely. High-calorie fruits and canned fruits such as bananas and durians contain high sugar content, and most of them are monosaccharides, which synthesize fat faster. Eating more of these high-calorie fruits is easy to gain weight, so you should eat them in moderation. In the process of making canned fruit, not only a lot of nutrients are lost, but also because it is soaked in a lot of sugar water, it contains a lot of sugar, even if it is packaged with 100% pure fruit juice, it is not good for weight loss.

High-calorie nuts and dried fruit

Nuts are the essence of plants. They are generally rich in nutrients and contain high protein, oil, minerals and vitamins. They have a good effect on promoting growth and development and enhancing physical fitness.

Nut foods can be divided into two categories, one is high-protein, high-fat nuts represented by melon seeds, peanuts, and walnuts; the other is high-starch, high-sugar nuts represented by chestnuts and lotus seeds. The same goes for dried fruit. Foods like raisins and dried apples look healthy on the surface, but they are very energy-dense.

Fatty meat and full-fat dairy

First, full-fat dairy products and fatty meats contain more calories than non-fat dairy products and lean meats. Secondly, the harmful substances ingested by animals during the feeding process will interfere with human endocrine.

Dioxin refers to not a single substance, but two types of organic compounds containing many congeners or isomers with similar structures and properties. This kind of substance is very stable, has a high melting point, is extremely insoluble in water, and can be dissolved in most organic solvents. One of the ways that humans ingest dioxins is through the consumption of animal products. Pesticides, hormones, and other chemicals used on industrial farms, whether to promote animal growth or to eliminate pests and fungi in crops, permeate non-organic meat or dairy products and are retained down. Once such meat or dairy products are eaten, these toxins will settle into the fatty tissue of a person and remain there for a long time. Studies have shown that dioxins are 10 times more likely to cause cancer if you eat a high-fat diet.
