Here are the 14 nutrition myths that are forced down your throat.
1/ Myth: Eggs Raise Your Cholesterol

2/ Myth: You Should Drink 8 Glasses of Water Daily

3/ Myth: Breakfast is the Most Important Meal
Truth: Timing isn’t everything.
Delaying or skipping breakfast can help regulate hunger— what you eat is much more important than when you eat.
Eating a bowl of cereal in the morning isn’t going to make you healthy.

4/ Myth: All Protein Sources Are Equal
Truth: Plant-based protein sources have a much weaker effect in the body due to their unbalanced amino acid profiles.
Animal proteins, especially eggs, are utilized far better for producing muscle, bone, hormones, and neurotransmitters.

If you're serious about weight management & metabolism, try Berberine.
I take it daily to support metabolism, gut health, & immunity.
But not all Berberine is created equal.

Unfortunately, it's to get enough red meat in your diet.
Organ meats are packed with vitamins and minerals, but they aren’t exactly appetizing.
That’s why I created this grass-fed beef organ supplement for a convenient source of nutrients.

11/ Myth: Salt is Bad for You
Truth: Excess sodium can be harmful, but natural salts like sea salt can improve electrolyte balance.
Many people can become dehydrated in warmer climates if they don’t get enough sea salt.
Living in Florida, I see this happen all the time.

12/ Myth: Organic = Healthy
Truth: Organic is better than processed, but that doesn’t automatically make it healthy.
Organic cookies are still junk food.
Organic ice cream is still going to make you fat.
Focus on whole, nutrient-rich organic foods, not labels alone.

14/ Myth: The Food Pyramid Is Healthy
Truth: The old pyramid’s high-carb, low-fat recommendation contributed to the obesity epidemic.
Cereal lobbyists changed the recommended amount of grains from 3 servings to 11 servings daily…
Nearly 4x what people should be eating.
