Bangalore: Generalizing about healthy food can snowball into a major disaster. Taking diet advice at face-value means you are playing a risky game of fat roulette. You have cut back on the chocolates, thrown out the biscuits, raided the nearest health food store, and had bran for breakfast, a salad for lunch and sushi for dinner- that is supposed to be making you lose the pounds right? But the menu you are hooked on to can be a fat landmine! Find out how straightforward diet oversights can disrupt low-calorie foods, doubling your fat intake and affecting your waistline.
Granola
A cereal saboteur, Granola seems harmless compared to eggs swimming in hollandaise sauce. But granola is no champion's breakfast. A cup of it contains about 560 calories and around 28 grams of fat- and all this before adding the milk. Though, undoubtedly nutritious and fibrous, it contains a high quantity of sugar and oil making it extremely high in fat.
Instead, try eating granola in smaller quantities and switch to low fat, sugar-free muesli or eat nuts.
