5 Foods That Sound Healthy – But Really Aren’t

Sometimes marketing speaks louder than facts. The food industry loves to label things with words like "fit", "light", or "natural", but that doesn’t always mean they're good for you.

Here are 5 common foods that sound healthy – but can sabotage your progress if you’re not careful:

1. Granola
Often packed with sugar and oils. Some versions have more calories than a chocolate bar.

2. Fruit Yogurts
Most are loaded with added sugars, artificial flavors, and barely any real fruit.

3. Veggie Chips
Still deep-fried. Still mostly starch. Still not a real vegetable portion.

4. Protein Bars
Yes, they sound like fitness fuel – but many are full of syrups, fillers, and low-grade protein.

5. Smoothies from Cafés
Pre-made or bottled versions are often sugar bombs in disguise.

PulseCore Tip:
Always check the ingredients. The simpler the list – the better. If something has 20 ingredients and you can’t pronounce half of them, it’s probably not what your body needs.

Your body deserves real fuel, not just good marketing.
Eat smart – not trendy.
