Smarter Food And Beverage Substitutes

By Bill Radford

Keeping healthy is integral to your long-term well being and a lot of it starts with eating nutritious foods. By cutting the processed foods out of your diet that may be high in fat and sugar, you'll be a lot better off.

Aside from giving up foods with no nutritional value, eating naturally organic ones can make a huge difference. I've become a huge advocate of this lifestyle, and the three examples that I'm going to share with you will give you some suitable alternatives to normally unhealthy foods.

Few people realize this, but ketchup is loaded with artificial sweeteners. If you look at the ingredients of any bottle, you'll see that high fructose corn syrup is present as one of the first ingredients.

Instead, you'd be better off choosing organic ones that are sweetened with real sugar. While this isn't exactly healthy and nutritious either, it's a lot less unhealthy than the usual and it should be just fine when consumed in moderation.

This rule doesn't just apply to ketchup. You might also be surprised to know that breads are sweetened via the same means. You'll never know this unless you look at the ingredients.

I would apply the same virtues to bread as the ones I just shared about catsup. Inspect the labels of anything you buy and you'll definitely see what it's sweetened with. With this new found knowledge, you'll probably never look at this food the same way again.

Many people are also misled when it comes to drinks. There are many beverages that call themselves juice drinks. This doesn't mean that you're drinking juice here. In fact, you're drinking loads of artificial sweeteners and chemicals.

If the drink is all juice, it'll say this on the label and within the ingredients. Inspect the drink quickly before choosing it, and stick with the ones that are pure juice. - 17273
