Dr Michael Mosley has warned people that the 'healthier' alternatives to their favourite foods may not be so healthy after all. He has listed four foods that he thinks people need to be aware of.
A famous doctor has issued a warning about four seemingly healthy foods that can actually "do more harm than good".
The medic acknowledges that deciphering which foods to purchase can be perplexing, especially while navigating through the supermarket aisles crowded with items proclaiming their healthiness.Writing on the Fast 800 blog last month, Dr Mosley said: "In a world full of food manufacturers, with clever marketing and a lack of science behind their claims, it can often become confusing to know exactly which foods are healthy when you're navigating the supermarket.
First up are vegetable crisps, an alternative to the potato variety, Daily Record reports. But according to Dr Mosley, these thin slices of veggies aren't big enough to provide any real nutritional value and aren't really any healthier than those ones made with spuds due to the amount of sunflower oil they're fried in. As an alternative, the health guru recommends opting for raw vegetables, nuts, seeds, or gut-boosting sauerkraut and kimchi.
He also shared that people should avoid porridge in sachets where they 'just add water'. According to the doctor, one bowl of instant oatmeal can have up to three spoonful's of sugar, as some brands have a staggering 16g per serving.
