Foods NOT to eat -- part 3 B
Foods to hardly ever eat or stop eating, part B
Your best choice is to simply substitute a Supefood you like for this group of foods.
But, if you are in good health & getting enough exercise, it’s probably OK to eat some of them a few times a year.
B. Refined Grains.
People who eat a lot of refined grains tend to get a lot of illnesses & health problems.
Conversely, people who virtually only eat whole grains tend to not get these same problems.
Refined grains have their fiber, & often most of their nutrients & micronutrients, removed.
As a result, people who eat refined grain foods don’t feel full; & the sugar boosting effects of eating the refined grain foods tend to happen too quickly. (Their glycemic index is high.)
Then, unless the person eating the refined grains has also eaten a lot of vegetables & whole fruit at that meal & is getting a lot of regular exercise currently, the person will likely be fat & tend to develop type II diabetes & then heart disease etc.
Ouch !!
And, it’s actually even worse currently -- since the packaged & restaurant & bake shop foods that now contain refined grains also tend to have transfat in them.
And, people who eat lots of refined grain food may also get sick due to lack of key nutrients.
Would you like to avoid being fat & do it without getting hungry?
Would you like to prevent or help reverse type II diabetes & heart & related cadiovascular disease?
Great !!
Slam the door on eating refined grain foods more than once a month or so.
And, always choose foods otherwise that are whole grain foods only.
PS: In breads, cookies, & crackers, if it has wheat flour listed as an ingredient, & particularly if it’s the first ingredient listed, it’s a refined grain food. And, that’s true even if it is brown in color & has a whole wheat or healthy sounding name.
*****
If you prefer to eat refined grains often, then be sure to protect yourself by compensating for them.
Eat plenty of vegetable & fruit Superfoods daily & take a good vitamin-mineral supplement. And, get LOTs of regular exercise; & ONLY eat refined grain foods that are transfat free.
