Let's take a quick look at why... 1. Peanut butter While peanut butter does contain a small amount of protein and vitamins/minerals, the cons outweigh the pros on this food. First of all, peanuts contain one of the highest concentrations of aflatoxin, which is a mold toxin that is created in peanuts due to storage in moist conditions. Peanut butter is also very high in inflammatory omega-6 fats and due to the processing of peanut butter, those omega 6 fats are in a harmful oxidized state. Most people already get too much omega 6 fats from vegetable oils (soy, corn, canola, etc), and this contributes to insulin resistance, heart disease, brain inflammation, cancer, and lots more health problems, since most people are currently eating 5-10x more omega-6 fats than we should be eating in a healthy diet. Lastly, peanut butter also contains medium amounts of oxalates, which are plant-based antinutrients that when consumed in excess can contribute to kidney stones, thyroid and gut problems, joint problems and more. We'll talk more about oxalates in the next food... 2. Spinach Spinach is promoted as a healthy green, but contains FAR more downsides than good sides. Spinach is one of the highest oxalate foods that's commonly eaten by modern humans (in addition to beet greens, beets, almonds, and other veggies and nuts). The amount of oxalates in a serving of spinach is extremely high, up to 600 mg in a normal sized bowl. The "safe" amount of oxalates in a daily diet according to world renowned oxalate expert Sally Norton should be between 100-200 mg per day total to avoid a lot of the health problems caused by high oxalate plants. So, you can see how concerning spinach is with the extremely high oxalate levels. As mentioned above, eating too much oxalates too frequently can cause serious issues such as kidney stones, thyroid problems, gut damage, skin issues, and joint pain. In fact, some people have even gotten "oxalate poisoning" by eating green smoothies too often and had to go to the ER for kidney failure. 3. Almonds Although almonds and almond milk are marketed as healthy, they also contain many downsides, including all of the negatives mentioned above about too much omega 6 fats and too much oxalates. They're probably ok in your diet occasionally, but I personally avoid eating almonds too often because of these issues with excess oxalates and omega 6 fats. Now let's take a look at a fun little quiz below and a few more foods... Bananas vs oranges vs apples...

As avid health enthusiasts, we're excited to share our experience and knowledge with you. Follow us to stay connected and informed on all things health and fitness! Health is very important as we age because our bodies undergo various changes and become more susceptible to certain health conditions. As we age, our metabolism slows down, and our bodies become less efficient at processing and absorbing nutrients. Additionally, our immune systems weaken, making us more vulnerable to infections and diseases. Maintaining good health through a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and proper sleep, can help reduce the risk of developing chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. It can also help manage symptoms and slow down the progression of age-related health conditions. Furthermore, good health in older age can improve quality of life and increase longevity, allowing individuals to remain independent and active for longer periods. Thus, taking care of our health as we age is crucial for a happy, fulfilling life in our later years. Taking care of our health as we age is not just about preventing diseases and prolonging life; it's about enjoying our golden years to the fullest. It's about being able to travel, spend time with loved ones, pursue hobbies, and engage in physical activities without limitations. Imagine being able to hike up a mountain, dance at a wedding, or play with your grandchildren without feeling tired or in pain. That's what good health in older age can provide - the freedom to enjoy life's simple pleasures without physical barriers. Moreover, good health can also positively impact mental health and emotional wellbeing. It can help reduce the risk of depression and anxiety, increase cognitive function, and improve overall mood and outlook on life. While aging is a natural part of life, it doesn't have to be synonymous with poor health and limitations. By prioritizing our health through healthy lifestyle choices and regular check-ups, we can age gracefully and maintain our independence and vitality for as long as possible. So, let's embrace our older years with a commitment to our health and wellbeing, and make the most out of every precious moment. Fitness is not just about looking good or having a perfect physique; it's about feeling good and living your best life. Exercise and physical activity have numerous benefits for both the body and mind. Regular exercise can improve cardiovascular health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. It can also strengthen bones, muscles, and joints, reducing the risk of injury and improving overall physical function. But the benefits of fitness don't stop there. Exercise has also been shown to have a positive impact on mental health, reducing the risk of depression, anxiety, and stress. It can improve cognitive function, memory, and overall brain health. Moreover, exercise is a great way to boost self-confidence and improve self-esteem. It can provide a sense of accomplishment and pride in one's abilities, leading to a more positive outlook on life. In addition, fitness can be a great way to socialize and connect with others who share similar interests. It can be a great way to meet new people and build meaningful relationships. Overall, fitness is important because it has a multitude of benefits for both the body and mind. It can improve physical health, mental health, and overall well being.
