Don’t believe everything you read #TheStubbornFatFix


We’ve seen news stories that claim chocolate pudding pops have “less fat than you think” and avocados have “more fat than you need”. Avocados are a fruit that grow in nature and have been eaten by humans for thousands of years. They contain a number of health-promoting antioxidants, plus heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, fiber, vitamin K, potassium, folate, vitamin C, and copper. Pudding pops are a relatively recent invention made from refined sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, or both. They contain calories and little to no nutrition. Why on earth would it be better for you to eat a pudding pop than an avocado, an egg, or a handful of olives?
