4. Sweetened yogurts and ready-made desserts
They may look appetizing, but they’re loaded with sugar, flavorings, and starch. Even when labeled “natural,” these ingredients can be a real fat trap. Sugar causes inflammation, and the fats in desserts increase cholesterol buildup.
Why are they harmful:
They simultaneously increase blood sugar and cholesterol
They worsen the composition of the blood
They increase inflammatory processes in the vessels
Healthy alternative: homemade unsweetened yogurt, berries, nuts, cottage cheese.
5. Canned soft drinks and juices
Even if they’re labeled “sugar-free,” they contain artificial sweeteners, which can also be harmful. Carbonated drinks contribute to inflammation, increase acidity, and disrupt the body’s fluid balance.
