BTOW: fACTS AND mYTHS

Hello EverBody!!!

A new week a new Brain teaser....

This week... i thought wud do something...a little different

we all hear so many facts and myths about H & F... but which is true and which ones not?

Below i have listed some myths and facts but u hve to work out which 1 is true and which one is a myth...

(no cheating!)

1) Fat free is calorie free

2) Carbohydrates do not cause weight gain unless they contribute to excess calorie intake. The same holds true for protein and fat. However, some people who eat a diet that is extremely high in carbohydrates and low in protein and fat get hungry sooner, which may trigger overeating

3) Extra protein makes you strong.

4) You can burn fat by eating certain foods, like grapefruit and cabbage soup

5) Yoghurt is good for people of all ages. Yoghurt is also important for those wanting to lose weight. As a milk product, yoghurt is naturally rich in calcium. Research shows that calcium helps reduce weight gain. Even small changes in the calcium levels of fat cells can change signals within the cell that control the making and burning of fat. What needs to be remembered is no one food is going to prove magic, it is a combination of effective diet and exercise plan that will really work. Avoid yoghurt that contains added sugars or sweetened fruit, as these upset the delicate chemical balance that allow the cultures to thrive. Sugars also feed the growth on unwanted yeasts, so you're better off without it!

6) You can still lose weight by eating what you want as long as you exercise everyday

7) Research has shown that after 20 minutes of exercise people ate no more than those who had done nothing. The only difference was that those who had exercised thought the food tasted better.

hOPE YOU hAVE lOTS OF fUN
