Healthy foods don't have sugar or fats

Оглавление

This is not true. To say that a healthy food cannot have sugar in it is not entirely correct. Healthy foods can have sugar or fat which may occur naturally in the food. For example, milk or fruit actually contain sugar, but it is in a natural form. These foods have nutritional value and should be included in a healthy diet.

As far as fat is concerned, you cannot have a healthy diet without some fat. Certain types of fat are essential to good health. Fats are a part of every cell, and are found in the cell membrane. We need fat for brain development. Fat is also necessary for the absorption of certain nutrients. Vitamin A and vitamin D are examples of fat soluble vitamins, which require fat in order to be absorbed by the body. So, when choosing healthy foods, look for those that have natural sugars and healthy fats.
