Description
It’s easy to unintentionally eat too much of foods that we perceive as being healthy. You may have run into this problem when “100-calorie” snack packets hit the shelves, or when you found out that healthy smoothies were packed with calories and needed to be eaten as a treat rather than a daily staple.
Many of us believe more is better and eat more in general. Some studies have shown that overeating
alone can account for the obesity epidemic. Skipping meals lowers your blood sugar and raises your insulin levels.
This creates cravings for quick-fix carbohydrates, which you’re probably used to getting from things like cereal, bread, fruit and grain bars, cookies and other foods made from the easily absorbed carbohydrates contained in grains.
