LIVE WELL WITH LAURA
Whole food fears
by Laura Burkett-Holstine, HHC
Whole foods. Sure, many of the recent news reports, publications, and books maintain that a whole foods diet is the way to go. But for some, fear and reservation still loom.
"But what if my 'whole food' has too much cholesterol, too many carbohydrates, or too much sugar?"
Have you noticed consumers are still buying low-fat dressings, popping the yolks out of hard boiled eggs, and avoiding apples, bananas, and pineapple? Then we spend our money on processed, fragmented, and denatured foods - all in the name of health!
