Jake was drinking a sports drink at lunch. Shelley ate 5 or 6 handfuls of nuts for her after-school snack. Graham guzzled OJ in the morning. What do these young swimmers have in common? They all thought they were healthy eaters. Being a healthy eater means knowing which foods promote health and how much to eat. Some foods have the appearance of being healthy, but when you look at the ingredients and analyze their nutrition, they fall into the unhealthy zone. Other foods may be truly healthy items, but eating large amounts pushes them to the unhealthy side. Many consumers are fooled by the food they eat. These 6 foods may be fooling your young swimmer, and here’s why:
Granola Bars. The lure of oats, honey, nuts and seeds is tempting because the promise of health seems to radiate from them. When they’re in isolation, yes, these ingredients are healthy, but packaged together and dipped in chocolate (or vanilla, peanut or other creamy, sugary coating), they aren’t. If you take a moment to scan the nutrition facts panel, you’ll find the percentage of fat and sugar can be off the charts! Be careful with these products— some granola bars resemble candy when their nutritional parameters are analyzed. If you can’t resist granola bars, you can always make your own or keep a cap on the fat, sugar and calories by limiting them to less than 5 grams per serving, less than 10 grams per serving and less than 180 calories per serving, respectively, in the packaged versions. 100% Fruit Juice. Yes, it’s a natural food. Yes, it counts as a fruit. And, yes it’s full of vitamin C. But, when consumed in large volumes (more than 8-12 ounces per day), 100% fruit juice may contribute too much sugar to an athlete’s diet. Nuts. Full of fiber, fat and protein, as well as nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E that help the brain and heart, nuts have long been touted as a health food. And they are healthy! However, because they provide a concentrated source of fat, nuts can level a powerful calorie punch. An ounce of nuts (roughly 23 almonds; 18 cashews; 35 peanuts; or 14 walnut halves) offers between 160-200 calories. If the young swimmer is tossing handfuls into his mouth, he may be getting too many calories. 已同步至 admin的微博 |
