COMMON DIET MYTHS Eating late at night will cause you to
gain weight Superfoods are better for you Low-carb, high-protein diets are optimal
for weight loss All fats are BAD Brown sugar, honey, agave are better
than white sugar Foods can burn calories

DIET MYTHS Carbohydrates are bad for your health
& cause weight gain Skipping meals can cause weight loss Foods speed up your metabolism “Natural” foods = better Non-GMO foods = healthier Gluten-free= healthier and better for
you
![Page 6: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Eating after 7 or 8 PM makes you gain weight
It makes NO difference what time you eat. What matters is how many calories you consume vs how many you burn off through activity over time.
The less fat you eat, the better Fat, when eaten in moderate amounts,
is important for our health and aids in weight loss, helping to increase our feelings of fullness.
![Page 7: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Some foods make you burn calories
Celery, grapefruit, etc will NOT make you burn calories and lose more weight.
“Negative” foods (foods that cause you to burn off more calories than the calories you get from eating the food) simply DO NOT exist.
![Page 8: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Carbohydrates are fattening—limit them
No matter what food group you choose, if you cut out the items from that group, you will reduce your caloric intake and lose weight.

Anyone can benefit from a gluten-free diet: it gives you more energy & is anti-inflammatory
Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition in which the body can’t digest gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye and barley
If you don’t have a medical reason for following a gluten-free diet there’s NO benefit

Fruit contains too much sugar—avoid it when you are trying to lose weight
One medium-sized apple=14 gm of sugar
½ cup of spaghetti sauce with meat =11 gm of sugar
1 cup low-fat fruit-flavored yogurt = 47 gm of sugar
1 McDonalds smoothie =56 gm sugar

The combination of foods that you eat really matters—for example, do not eat carbohydrates and protein at the same time
The combinations of carbohydrates, fat, and protein that you choose do not make any difference in weight loss.
The thing that matters is how many calories you consume vs. how many you expend
![Page 13: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SUPERFOODS What is it?
Used to describe food with high nutrient or phytochemical content that may confer health benefits, with few properties considered to be negative, such as being high in saturated fat or artificial ingredients, food additives or contaminants
No legal definition
![Page 14: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SUPERFOOD EXAMPLES Berries Nuts and seeds Dark green vegetables
Kale, greens, swiss chard, brussel sprouts Citrus fruits, Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel,
sardines Others?

RESEARCH SAYS… The term is misused
Example: seawood contains natural toxins & may increase risk of cancer * liver damage
Marketing strategy Supplements work different from foods
Green tea extract vs green tea Do not contain all of the nutrients
needed in life
![Page 16: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
GMO: GOOD OR BAD?
An organism whose genetic material has been altered using engineering techniques. Include micro-organisms such as bacteria and
yeast, insects, plants, fish
In agriculture, genetically engineered crops are created to possess desirable traits, such as resistance to pests, herbicides, or harsh environmental conditions, Improved product shelf life Increased nutritional value
![Page 17: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What are the main issues of concern for human health?
Tendencies to provoke allergic reaction (allergenicity), gene transfer and outcrossing (movement of genes)
No effects on human health have been shown as a result of the consumption of such foods by the general population in the countries where they have been approved
Future GM organisms are likely to include plants with improved disease or drought resistance, crops with increased nutrient levels, fish species with enhanced growth characteristics and plants or animals producing important proteins such as vaccines

PLANT-BASED DIET Emphasizes fruits and vegetables,
grains, beans and legumes, and nuts, is rich in fiber, vitamins and other nutrients.
Vegetarians:Eat fewer caloriesWeigh lessLower risk Heart DiseaseLower incidence of cancer
Red meat 4 ounces/day ↑ cancer risk 30% Poultry, fish ↓

Substitute protein-rich foods for meat in your favorite recipes at least 1x/week: Beans and legumes — great in casseroles
and saladsVegetarian crumbles— a good substitute for
meat in burritos and tacosTofu — a perfect addition to stir-fry dishes
Mediterranean diet Limits red meat and emphasizes fruits,
vegetables, legumes, whole grains and healthy fats best for ↓ heart disease, fatty liver, weight management

Eating late at night will cause you to gain weight
Eating late at night, or at any particular time of day, will not cause you to put on more weight than what is normal for what you ate and the activity you did.
What are you eating late at night???
![Page 22: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
It’s important to fast periodically, to cleanse toxins from your body The truth: Your body has its own
elegantly designed system for removing toxins—namely, the liver, kidneys and spleen.
There isn’t ANY evidence that not eating—or consuming only juice—for any period of time makes your organs do this job any better1 cup orange juice
1 cup fresh fruit
0 grams fiber 4 grams fiber
26 grams carbs21 gm sugar
20 grams carbs15 gm sugar

THE TRUTH It’s the amount of CALORIES that make
you gain or lose weight
No foods help you burn calories
Pick from healthy, whole foods: fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein It doesn’t matter when you eat them or in
what order
![Page 24: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
THE TRUTH
Nuts are not fattening but watch the calories!Healthy fats vs unhealthy (bad) fats¼ cup nuts = 180-200 calories
![Page 25: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
TRUTHOrganic doesn’t mean “Healthy” Eating organic fruits and vegetables can
lower exposure to pesticides, including for children – but the amount measured from conventionally grown produce was within safety limits
It’s not more nutritious
TIP: buy local produce that may be “organic” and support local farmers
![Page 26: By Erin McCarthy Center for Lifestyle Medicine Healthy Transitions 2013.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/55191d745503462f428b4acd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Conventional Organic
Apply chemical fertilizers to promote plant growth.
Apply natural fertilizers, such as manure or compost, to feed soil and plants.
Spray synthetic insecticides to reduce pests and disease.
Spray pesticides from natural sources; use beneficial insects and birds, mating disruption or traps to reduce pests and disease.
Use synthetic herbicides to manage weeds.
Use environmentally-generated plant-killing compounds; rotate crops, till, hand weed or mulch to manage weeds.
Give animals antibiotics, growth hormones and medications to prevent disease and spur growth.
Give animals organic feed and allow them access to the outdoors. Use preventive measures — such as rotational grazing, a balanced diet and clean housing — to help minimize disease.

SIMPLE RULES FOR EATING HEALTHY If you cannot pronounce the ingredients,
pass it up Apple pie is not a fruit If you stay away from “processed” foods
you are not necessarily eating healthier all the time (unless you grow your own food daily)
Eating all your pasta is not going to save any starving children
A moderate diet is a healthy diet Choose whole foods Count calories daily for the rest of your
life!
