Losing weight can be tough due to the many misconceptions about what to eat when trying to get rid of those pounds.  Balanced meals that include fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean meats are always a safe bet, but many people tend to overindulge. The prevalent assumption among many dieters is that you can’t have too much of a good thing.  While it is true that eating a banana is much better for you than eating a piece of chocolate cake, consuming too much fruit juice can ruin a diet.  Let’s look closer at what has fueled this myth and how there is such a thing as overindulgence in healthy fare.

One of the biggest proponents of the fruit myth are the ever-popular juice and detox diets that you read about on the internet or see late night infomercials for.  These diets involve extreme calorie deficits, through all liquid diets, and may include taking laxatives or other drastic measures.  They promise quick weight loss, which makes them popular among celebrities who need rapid results for an upcoming role.  These diets are many times fruit juice based, which may have created the belief in the dieter’s mind that fruit juice is good for your health.

While fruit juice in limited quantities can be good for you, it is actually one of the biggest diet killers out there.  Did you know that a one-serving bottle of cranberry juice cocktail has 200 calories and 50 grams of sugar?  That’s the same as drinking a soda.  Most juices are from concentrate, a combination of juice and high-fructose corn syrup not much different than a soft drink.  If you drank five of these a day, you would be adding an extra 7000 calories to your diet a week!  Water, on the other hand, contains no calories or mega doses of sugar.  Don’t buy in to the myth that fruit juice is healthier than soda just because it’s made from fruit.

Instead of living off of fruit juices and laxatives to lose weight, a better alternative is a natural appetite suppressant, such as a hoodia shot.  This supplement can help you curb hunger without obsessing over food.  Though mostly sold in capsule form, liquid hoodia is fast acting and will trick your brain into feeling full without a lack of energy.  Many users also report better mood than before beginning the supplement.
