Specialists from Rospotrebnadzor told Krasnoyarsk residents about common misconceptions associated with healthy eating. The department noted that a healthy diet does not necessarily mean monotonous food, complex cooking or high expenses.
One of the most common myths, experts say, is the idea that with proper nutrition you will have to eat the same thing all the time. In fact, the diet should be as varied as possible. In addition to meat, it is recommended to include fish and seafood, plant sources of protein, and also consume vegetables, fruits and herbs daily.
Another misconception is that healthy eating is supposedly too difficult to organize. Rospotrebnadzor advises to prepare a menu for the week in advance and buy products according to the list. This helps not only to maintain a diet, but also to avoid unnecessary expenses.
Experts also refuted the idea that healthy food is necessarily tasteless. According to them, you shouldn’t force yourself to eat foods you don’t like. It is better to choose healthy dishes and ingredients according to your own taste.
In addition, the department noted that preparing healthy food does not always take a lot of time. For example, a vegetable salad with fresh herbs can be prepared in just a few minutes.
Experts also called the idea of the high cost of proper nutrition a myth. Seasonal vegetables and fruits, menu planning and more affordable alternatives to expensive products will help you save. So, instead of red fish, you can choose mackerel, which is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
Rospotrebnadzor emphasized that healthy eating should not only be healthy, but also comfortable, bringing pleasure and helping to maintain good health.
“Eating healthy is an investment in yourself. It should be light, tasty and pleasant and, most importantly, give energy and good health every day,” noted Rospotrebnadzor.
