Takeaways

• 😀 Maintaining a balanced body is 70% about nutrition, with the remaining 30% focusing on physical activities and mental health.
• 😀 Eating healthy doesn't mean completely avoiding indulgent foods; occasional indulgence is fine if it doesn't happen too often.
• 😀 Calorie counting is useful, but it's not the only factor in a healthy diet. We should also consider proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
• 😀 A healthy diet doesn't require complete restriction of foods like fats; instead, it's about choosing the right types of fats, such as those from nuts and avocados.
• 😀 Low-fat diets may not always be the best choice for weight loss or long-term health. They can lead to deficiencies in fat-soluble vitamins and other health issues.
• 😀 Drinking water is essential for detoxification, and the body's organs, especially the liver and kidneys, naturally help detoxify without the need for supplements.
• 😀 Supplements for weight loss have not been proven effective and may even harm your health.
• 😀 It's a myth that eating only egg whites is better for health than eating whole eggs. Both the yolk and the white have important nutrients.
• 😀 Drinking fruit and vegetable juices alone isn't a perfect substitute for eating whole foods. Juices lack fiber and can lead to hunger sooner.
• 😀 MSG (monosodium glutamate) is generally safe to consume, but excessive intake may lead to discomfort for some people.
• 😀 Using a microwave to cook food doesn't reduce nutritional value as much as some people believe. In fact, it can preserve vitamins better than other cooking methods.
