You Think You’re Eating Healthy
How many times have you heard that eating fruits or nuts is great for you? Well, technically they are fantastic for you as the omegas in nuts and seeds and the micronutrients and phytogens that come with fruit are awesome for your health. But guess what? In excess, they carry sugars and higher calories than you think. Remember, one gram of fat contains nine calories.
Now when you pick up some almonds and start snacking on them most of the time you don’t measure them, you simply estimate what an ounce or gram looks like (if you estimate at all). Don’t get carried away as these seeds and nuts are high density source of calories and could jack up your total for the day.
