Myth #2: Brown Eggs Are Healthier


Myth #2: Brown Eggs Are Healthier




 Truth: When it comes to eggs, the color on the outside has nothing to do with the nutrition on the inside. The nutrients found in brown and white eggs are essentially the same, however, brown eggs often cost more. “Regular brown eggs are not worth the higher price tag,” says registered dietitian Victoria Shanta Retelny, author of "The Essential Guide to Healthy Healing Foods". Retelny says if you’re looking to boost the nutrient content of your eggs, choose brands whose packages say they’re rich in omega-3 fats (the hens' feed is rich in these essential fatty acids); they cost a bit more as well, but in this case, you’re actually getting what you’re paying for.

Myth #1 Related to Healthy Food


Myth #1: Two-Percent Milk Is Much Lower In Fat than Whole




Truth: The labeling of milk makes this one a common mistake. While 2% milk sounds like it would be much lower in fat than whole milk, in reality whole milk contains roughly 3 percent fat, not much of a difference. “A low-fat food is defined by having 3 grams of fat or less per serving and 2% milk has 4.9 grams of fat per serving,” says registered dietitian Keri Gans, author of "The Small Change Diet". She recommends opting for nonfat milk.
