 We are already accustomed to eating store-bought food. These are semi-finished products, baked buns and cakes, fried pies and sour cream. However, the extra fats and carbohydrates we consume lead to weight gain. Salt retains water in the body. Excess weight, in turn, leads to diseases such as diabetes mellitus, vascular sclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, etc. What products should we eat in order to preserve our health for many years, not to start aging ahead of time?
Fats occur naturally in meat and in most dairy products. However, if you are looking for calorie-free foods, they should not only be fat-free, but also free of salt and sugar.
Thus, it is very difficult to find such foods because salt and sugar are found in many foods, even fruits and vegetables, even in small amounts.
Let's name delicious complete foods that are practically free of fat, salt and sugar.
Dairy
They essentially contain lactose, a natural milk sugar that is not harmful to the human body and may also contain small amounts of salt. There are many varieties of dairy products on the market today that do not contain salt and sugar.
To cook healthy milk dessert or a sauce suitable for various dishes, you can take low fat yogurt, put it in cheesecloth and let it drain. The addition of spices is optional.
Whole grain
Oat grains, barley, brown rice, millet and whole wheat do not contain fat, salt or sugar in their natural state. However, if you buy them in the store, in the form of convenience foods, fried grains, and ready-made snacks, they inevitably contain all three unwanted ingredients.
To avoid this, try cooking flour dishes at home. Thus, the ingredients that you will add in the form of salt and sugar, if this cannot be completely avoided, will be present in significantly lower quantities than they are added in the factory.
Legumes
80% of our salt comes from processed foods. The addition of sugar and salt to them during processing makes these even the healthiest-sounding foods look like canned food. For example, canned beans.
Dried beans, lentils and peasHome cooked has no added salt or fat. They are surprisingly healthy meals. Replacing factory-processed foods with homemade foods will reduce your overall salt intake. On the other hand, it would be a good alternative as a nutritious and healthy food.
Fruits and vegetables
Almost all fruits in their natural form do not contain fat, but only a small amount of natural sugars and salts. Interestingly, fruits and vegetables that are steamed, baked or stewed without added fat do not alter the fat, sugar and salt content. They are also very rich in fiber, which is essential for cleansing the intestines.
Frozen and canned fruits and vegetables without salt are also included in the group of healthy nutritious foods.
