Don't Be Fooled By Certain "Health" Foods
Article Date: 09 Mar 2007 - 0:00 PST
If you're one of the millions of Americans hoping to lose weight by buying fat-free, cholesterol-free, or all-natural products, you may be surprised. Experts say it's those so-called "healthy" foods that often sabotage diets.
"These are the foods we naturally look to as we try to lose extra pounds; however, they are the ones that we need to be careful about," says Dee Rollins, PhD, R.D., dietitian with Baylor Regional Medical Center at Grapevine.
Case and point granola.
"Everyone thinks granola bars are wonderful and yet if you turn it over and look at the ingredients you'll see that it has high fructose corn syrup and a lot of sugars," adds Dr. Rollins.
In fact, the average granola bar contains more than 300 calories and 10 grams of fat not a healthy snack at all.
Now what about some of those bran cereals?
"You'll find that there's a lot of hidden sugar, perhaps even some hidden salt, even a little fat in those cereals that you don't anticipate finding," says Dr. Rollins.
The meat aisle is no safer a pound of ground turkey can really ruffle a dieter's feathers, sometimes containing more fat grams than a pound of ground beef.
"If you flip that label over and read the ingredients, you'll see that it's high salt, maybe they added some fat, maybe they added some sugar and those products might not be as healthy as you think they are," explains Dr. Rollins.
And don't look down the bread aisle for any less deceptive packaging. "Multi-grain, honey wheat, seven-grain…we're looking at all of those names and inside that brown bread wrapper we think it's going to be a really good product," adds Dr. Rollins.
But experts say it's actually 'whole grain' that's the only indication that it's a truly healthy buy.
And the ultimate in diet deception "low-fat."
"When they take the fat out they almost always put the sugar in so check the calorie count. There's probably more calories in a low-fat or low-carbohydrate product than in a regular product," says Dr. Rollins.
And here are some other "healthy" foods to watch out for:
- 100 percent fruit juice it's still full of calories
- all-natural potato chips made from real potatoes, but still loaded with fat and sodium
- 'cholesterol-free' anything if it's not an animal product it doesn't have cholesterol in it at all so keep in mind that usually when you see the label 'cholesterol-free' it means nothing.
So what exactly should you look for when reading labels? According to Dr. Rollins, concentrate on three things sodium, fat and total calories. Then read through the ingredients and make sure things like salt, sugar and corn syrup aren't at the top.

不要被所谓的“健康”食品愚弄
If you're one of the millions of Americans hoping to lose weight by buying fat-free, cholesterol-free, or all-natural products, you may be surprised. Experts say it's those so-called "healthy" foods that often sabotage diets.
如果你是几百万美国人中希望通过购买无脂肪、无胆固醇或全天然食品来减肥的一个,你可能感到惊讶的是,专家们说那就是所谓的经常破坏日常饮食的“健康”食品。
"These are the foods we naturally look to as we try to lose extra pounds; however, they are the ones that we need to be careful about," says Dee Rollins, PhD, R.D., dietitian with Baylor Regional Medical Center at Grapevine.
“这些是我们自然会注意到的食品,因为我们在尽力减掉额外的体重;但是,它们也是我们必须小心的食品,” Grapevine Baylor地区医疗中心的Dee Rollins博士说。
Case and point granola.
比如燕麦类食品
"Everyone thinks granola bars are wonderful and yet if you turn it over and look at the ingredients you'll see that it has high fructose corn syrup and a lot of sugars," adds Dr. Rollins.
“每个人都认为燕麦饼干棒很好吃,但是如果你看看它背面的成分,你会发现它含有许多果糖浆和许多蔗糖” Rollins博士补充说。
In fact, the average granola bar contains more than 300 calories and 10 grams of fat not a healthy snack at all.
事实上,每个燕麦饼干棒平均含300卡路里的热量和10克脂肪,根本就不是一种健康点心。
Now what about some of those bran cereals?
现在那些加工过的谷类食品怎么样呢?
"You'll find that there's a lot of hidden sugar, perhaps even some hidden salt, even a little fat in those cereals that you don't anticipate finding," says Dr. Rollins.
“你会发现有许多隐藏的糖类,甚至可能有一些隐藏的盐,甚至在那些谷类食品中你根本就没有料到会发现一些脂肪。” Rollins博士说
The meat aisle is no safer。 a pound of ground turkey can really ruffle a dieter's feathers, sometimes containing more fat grams than a pound of ground beef.
加工过的肉类更不安全。一磅土耳其炸鸡确实可以触怒节食者,因为其有时要比一磅牛肉含有更多的脂肪。
"If you flip that label over and read the ingredients, you'll see that it's high salt, maybe they added some fat, maybe they added some sugar and those products might not be as healthy as you think they are," explains Dr. Rollins.
“如果你把标签翻开,看到成分,你会发现它是高盐的,也许其中添加了一些脂肪,也许添加了一些蔗糖,而且那些食品根本就不是你认为的那么健康,” Rollins博士解释说。
And don't look down the bread aisle for any less deceptive packaging. "Multi-grain, honey wheat, seven-grain…we're looking at all of those names and inside that brown bread wrapper we think it's going to be a really good product," adds Dr. Rollins.
而且也不要因为面包没有华丽的外包装而小看此类食品。“多种谷类,加蜜的小麦,其中谷类……我们在黑面包的外皮上看到所有这些名称,我们会认为这将是一种真正好的食品”
But experts say it's actually 'whole grain' that's the only indication that it's a truly healthy buy.
但是专家说,所谓的“全谷物”只是一种为了好卖而打上得的健康标签。
And the ultimate in diet deception "low-fat."
最后是具有欺骗性质的“低脂”
"When they take the fat out they almost always put the sugar in so check the calorie count. There's probably more calories in a low-fat or low-carbohydrate product than in a regular product," says Dr. Rollins.
“当他们提取出脂肪,他们几乎总是把糖放进去以便减少卡路里的含量。低脂或低胆固醇食品很可能要比普通食品含有更多的卡路里” Rollins博士说。
And here are some other "healthy" foods to watch out for:
还有一些其它“健康”食品要小心:
- 100 percent fruit juice it's still full of calories
- all-natural potato chips made from real potatoes, but still loaded with fat and sodium
- 'cholesterol-free' anything if it's not an animal product it doesn't have cholesterol in it at all so keep in mind that usually when you see the label 'cholesterol-free' it means nothing.
So what exactly should you look for when reading labels? According to Dr. Rollins, concentrate on three things sodium, fat and total calories. Then read through the ingredients and make sure things like salt, sugar and corn syrup aren't at the top。
100%的果汁其实仍然含有卡路里
全天然薯片来自真正的土豆,但是仍然富含脂肪和盐
紧记当你看到“无胆固醇”的标签时,其实没有任何意义
那么,当你看到这些标签时,你会发现什么呢?根据Rollins博士的看法,应该集中注意三件事情:盐,脂肪和总的卡路里含量。然后,仔细看那些组成成分,确保像盐,蔗糖和玉米糖浆这样的成分不是在最上层。
