MIND AND BODY Page 13 DIETITIAN’S DIGEST, vol. 23 From our dietitian, Christine Lacy Food Myths You Need to Stop Believing Myth #1: Egg yolks are bad for you Dietary cholesterol has been wrongly accused of raising our blood cholesterol levels for years. It’s become clearer that saturated fats and trans fats are more influential in raising blood cholesterol levels. And while eggs—the yolks included—are high in cholesterol, they are relatively low in saturated fats. Lots of research has been done in recent years, and the verdict is that the entire egg can actually be a part of a healthy diet and in most people, do not significantly impact cholesterol levels or heart disease risk. Myth #2: Coffee is dehydrating Yes, coffee is a diuretic (aka, promotes urine production), but it’s an extremely mild one. It also has a lot of water in it and therefore actually counts toward your daily fluid intake. The amount it would take to dehydrate you is more than anyone should be consuming in a day—if you have two or three cups daily, your fluid levels should be completely fine. Myth #3: Low-fat versions are better than the originals If you’re still buying low-fat varieties of naturally fatty foods (for example – salad dressings, coffee creamer etc.), you might be doing yourself a disservice. Fat is a necessary part of a healthy diet. You need fat in your diet. Any extra calories you eat that your body can’t use can be converted into body fat, not just dietary fat. Fat is more densely caloric, though, which is both a blessing and a curse. Because fat is so rich in calories, it is also very satisfying. That’s good because ideally it means you could mindfully eat or use a small amount to feel full. It also means you need to watch your portion sizes. When fat is removed from foods, it’s usually replaced by sugar or salt, so it’s important to read the ingredients list before choosing the adulterated version. Usually, you’re better off eating a small serving of the full-fat kind so you actually enjoy it and feel satiated. BRAIN FITNESS TIP OF THE MONTH Intuition: Putting Signals together Intuition: this occurs when we perceive signals that are not obvious to others and put them together. Sometimes the perception of signals is subconscious, seeming almost instinctual. Here’s a likely example. A housewife hangs her freshly washed laundry out in her yard and leaves for the market, returning to find the wash strewn all over the place. “I just knew something was going to go wrong today!” she says. And she did.
