01/4Margarine
Think margarine is healthy? Think again! Most kinds of margarine rely primarily on highly processed vegetable oils (particularly soybean and palm oil). Choosing grass-fed organic butter in moderation is a much better option for our health as these kinds of butter contain high-levels of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
02/4Most frozen meals
While many kids often tend to nom on frozen meals after school, they actually shouldn't prefer touching one at all in reality. Why? Most prepackaged frozen meals are overly processed, made with refined flour, high in sodium, and full of additives and preservatives. All things that are not good for your body.
03/4Boutique fruit juices
While that carton promises to give you the vitamins and minerals you need, fruit juices — even the boutique ones — are a slippery slope. These expensive juice products are generally packed in calories and they won't keep you feeling full or provide anywhere near the full nutritional benefit of eating whole fruits and veggies.
04/4Cheese
While everything in moderation is a good rule of thumb for almost anything, cheese is on the naughty list to get calcium. Cheese is generally high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium, all of which we need to cut back on. You are better off with low-fat milk, a soy or almond alternative, or vitamin D-fortified yogurt.
