The Top 8 Nutrition Facts and Myths

In the world of nutrition, myths and news headlines can often overshadow the truths, which can leave us wondering about what to put on our plates.

The larger truth is that we are all unique individuals who may have different nutritional needs. There are many different diets such as Mediterranean, Paleo, Keto, Low-Carb, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free, etc.

Often, when it comes down to every-day reality, there’s no “one diet fits all” approach and eating a variety of healthy foods is what matters.  The best advice is to enjoy whole, unprocessed single foods like vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, poultry, eggs, nuts, seeds, yams, potatoes, squash, and healthy oils like olive and coconut oil. Especially healthy are leafy greens, salmon and sardines.

And most important, laying aside what any particular diet recommends, if a certain food disagrees or agrees with you, you’re the boss!

With that in mind, here are some of the most common nutrition facts and myths, backed by research studies.
