Best Answer – Chosen by Voters We crave the foods that should be most forbidden to us. Artery clogging, fat filled, high cholesterol laden, waistline busting, high blood pressure inducing foods. Why do we do this? Because they taste good and we become addicted to satisfying these cravings. You can and should retrain your body to eat and crave good for you.What are the Worst ten foods to eat? 1. Chips: Just a couple of handfuls can pack in over 150 calories plus 3 grams of saturated fats (the unhealthy kind of fat) and 10 grams total fat. 2. Non-dairy toppings: Like Cool Whip for example. Pack with artery clogging oils the calories easily load up. 3. Doughnuts: No nutritional benefit here – just oodles of fat and carbs. One glazed doughnut can pack in 200-300 calories with up to 20grams of fat. Only 30% of our total diet should come from fat. Based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet, this amounts to about 44 to 78 grams of total fat a day, so you can see why blowing 20 grams on one doughnut is a no-no. 4. Pasta: Covered in and drenched with butter, cream and Parmesan cheese. Again, loaded in fat and calories. A portion the size of your fist, and lets be real, who is stopping at a fistful, can contain over 500+ calories and over 30 grams of total fat. 5. Sausage: Another artery clogging fat and calorie buster. 6. Fried chicken: Just one fried chicken breast has nearly 400 calories and 22 grams of fat. 7. Canned cheese: Two tablespoons have 21 grams of fat, 13 grams of which are saturated. 8. French fries: A six ounce serving contains 570 calories, half of which are from fat! 9. White bread. Like all processed foods, there is little nutritional benefit and loads of carbohydrates. 10. Soda: Loaded in sugar, calories and chemicals it simply has no place in a healthy diet.If you want to promote your health you think to think fresh. Load up on healthy fresh fruits, vegetables, low fat dairy and lean protein – all of which are packed with healthy and metabolism boosting fiber, vitamins and minerals.What are the Best ten foods to eat?It's clear the American diet is loaded with processed foods, chemicals, fat, sugar and other ingredients that are just clearly not healthy for you. So how do you know what foods are positive and good for your health. The following is a top ten list: 1. Sweet potatoes: They're loaded with carotenoids, vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. 2. Grape tomatoes: They're packed with vitamin C and vitamin A, and you also get some fiber. 3. Skim milk: Full of calcium, vitamins, and protein with little or no artery-clogging fat and cholesterol. 4. Broccoli: Has lots of vitamin C, carotenoids, and folic acid. 5. Wild Salmon: Full of omega-3 fats it can help reduce the risk of heart attacks. 6. Whole grain bread and crackers: Loaded with fiber and often fat-free. 7. Brown Rice: Contains whole grain fiber, magnesium, vitamins E and B-6, copper, zinc, and phytochemicals. 8. Citrus Fruit: Rich in vitamin C, folic acid, and fiber. 9. Butternut Squash: Contains loads of vitamins A and C and fiber. 10. Spinach and Kale: Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, folate, potassium, magnesium, iron, lutein, and phytochemicals.The common denominators in all these colon healthy fresh, unprocessed foods are fiber plus vitamins and minerals. If you want to preserve your health you need to have a healthy unprocessed diet. This in turn promotes good colon health which benefits your overall health. Source(s): Good Luck !!

Simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice) trigger the fat storage hormone insulin. The body won't release fat stores til the blood stream is clear of insulin. The more protein the more the fat burning hormone glucagon is released.I am adamantly opposed to low calorie dieting because most people lose a good portion of lean tissue (including vital organs like the heart) along with fat stores. There is no nutrition in fat stores, only energy. Most people get impatient and lower their calories and increase their exercise to a point where they lose so much lean tissue that when they return to what was maintenance level eating they are now accumulating more fat stores because their caloric needs have dropped due to the loss of this tissue as well as their metabolism slowing down to work more efficiently on fewer calories & it becomes a vicious cycle of dieting and more loss (including vital organs like the heart). This stress to the vital organs cannot be healthy.
