[Alert] THESE Foods Are Making You FAT!

When you’re trying to lose weight, it seems like all foods are off-limits.
That’s because your mainstream doctor will tell you that things like meat, cheese, and nuts are strictly forbidden.
But I’m here to tell you that’s a bunch of bologna.
Because if you truly want to lose weight… and improve your health… you only have to give up one type of food.
And it won’t feel like a sacrifice.
I’m talking about ultra-processed foods like crackers, chips, cookies, and packaged meals.
You see, these foods contain ingredients that make you want to eat more. These include:
- Grains (wheat, rice, oats)
- Sugars including high fructose corn syrup
- Seed oils
- Trans fats
- Salt
- And artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, and preservatives.
And now a new study, published by the National Institute of Health, proves that eating foods made with these ingredients can make you gain weight!
For the research, scientists put 10 people on a fresh, whole food diet. And then they put another 10 people on a diet of ultra-processed foods. Both groups could eat as much as they wanted.
After only two weeks, the ultra-processed group gained 2 pounds and the unprocessed food group lost 2 pounds.
Think about that for a moment. After only two weeks, there was a four-pound difference between the two groups!
Why?
The ultra-processed group ate an average of 500 more calories each day… proving that they make you consume more food.
Thankfully, ditching these foods DOES NOT mean ditching flavor.
Eating a diet of tasty whole foods – like grass-fed beef, wild-caught seafood, full-fat dairy, nuts, and tons of fresh fruits and vegetables – can help you lose weight… and help you stay healthier, too.
