Counting the Misconceptions: Unraveling the Truth about Health Preservation

January 25, 2024

Health preservation is a topic that modern people are most concerned about, but there is not much scientific basis for health preservation. For example, some people buy vegetables with bug eyes, thinking that those vegetables are pesticide-free. But I want to say, is it a bit arbitrary to do so? What are some other misconceptions about health preservation?


Counting the misconceptions about health preservation in daily life

Misconception 1: Chicken butts contain carcinogens and should not be eaten

There are only two types of "lymph nodes" on chicken butts that should not be eaten, but they are usually removed during regular slaughter, so there are no other harmful substances. Once removed, you can eat them with peace of mind.

Misconception 2: Vegetable leaves with bug eyes are the safest

Who hasn't used pesticides before?

Bug eyes only indicate that the vegetables have been damaged by insects, not that they have not been sprayed with pesticides.

Misconception 3: Fruits should not be eaten after a meal

It is easy to feel too full after eating.

Fruits can be eaten at any time, on an empty stomach or during a meal.

It's just that if you leave them for after the meal, they may be eaten by someone else first.

Misconception 4: Red-skinned peanuts can nourish the blood

Eating some meat is much better.

Red-skinned peanuts do contain some beneficial substances, but the amount is very limited and the significance is not significant.

If you want to eat the skin, eat it; if you don't want to eat it, spit it out.

Misconception 5: Eating radishes in winter is good for the body

Because... in the past, there were not many other vegetables to eat in winter besides radishes.

It's different now, you can eat all kinds of vegetables in winter.

Moreover, radishes are just ordinary vegetables, except that they have high water content and more fiber, their other nutritional components are average, not to mention the exaggerated claim that "radishes can cure all diseases."

Misconception 6: Starving can cure all diseases

If you starve to death, indeed, you won't have any diseases.

Many chronic diseases are related to uncontrolled diet, but this does not mean that starving oneself is healthier.

The key to health is balance.
