In popular belief there are many myths related to food, such as fear of consuming mango with milk or using whole products to lose weight.
However, it is important to be informed before believing in popular myths, as food should be used to improve quality of life and well-being.
1. Vegetarian food gets thinner
Vegetable food does not lose weight, as weight loss only happens if there is a reduction in the calories consumed. Despite containing more fiber, vegetables and vegetables, vegetarian food can also contain excess fats, fried foods and caloric sauces, which favors weight gain.
2. Tea causes impotence
Teas do not cause impotence, but this belief exists because hot drinks give a feeling of relaxation and help to calm down. However, some teas are even aphrodisiacs, such as black tea and catuaba tea, increasing libido, improving circulation and helping to combat impotence.
3. Mango with milk is bad
It is often heard that drinking milk with mango is bad, but this mixture is rich in nutrients and is very good for health.
Milk is a complete food, with several nutrients and is only contraindicated in cases of lactose intolerance, while mango is a fruit rich in fibers and enzymes that facilitate digestion, helping to regulate the intestine.
Ask questions and know if eating mango and bananas at night is bad.
4. Whole foods are not fattening
Whole foods, such as whole grains, bread, rice and wholegrain pasta, when consumed in excess also make you fat.
Despite being rich in fiber, these foods also contain calories that favor weight gain, if not consumed in a balanced way.
5. Refrigerant gas gives cellulite
In fact, what can increase cellulite is the sugar that soft drinks have, not the gas in drinks. The bubbles that form due to gas in soft drinks are not related to cellulite, as they do not contain calories and are eliminated from the intestine.
6. Fats are always bad for your health
Fats are not always bad for your health, as the benefit or harm depends on the type and amount of fat you eat. Trans and saturated fats, present in red meats and fried foods, harm health, but unsaturated fats, which are in olive oil, in fish and dried fruits, help fight cholesterol and improve health, especially of the heart.
