BEWARE & BE AWARE Fruit juices in tetra packs Packaged fruit juices contain added sugar and preservatives to increase its taste and shelf-life. Instead of sipping on some preservative laced fruit juice, why not consume the wholesome goodness of fresh fruits. That way, you will get both the juice along with the fibre. Frozen meat Buying frozen burger patties or meat balls may cut your kitchen work, but they add a lot more preservatives in your body. The factory prepared frozen meals are loaded with hydrogenated oils, preservatives and many other artificial ingredients. So, why not try buying fresh meat and then refrigerating it at home. Energy drinks Energy drinks are fatally caffeinated and ready to explode sugar bombs, which are unhealthy for your body. So, drink a cup of coffee for that mid-morning kick. This will also help in controlling that sugar level, which is quite high in the so-called energy drinks. Packaged drinking water While buying packaged drinking water, think not only about the quality of water you are getting but also about the substance used to make that bottle. The chemicals (BPA and phthalates) used to make these bottles are harmful for your health. Even a tiny amount of these chemicals in your body can cause problems like obesity, damage to brain, hyperactivity, and reproductive issues, etc. So, next time you opt to pick up bottled water think of the environmental and heath damages it would be causing.
