Professor Cincento Midiano of the Italian Nutrition Institute, through his research, has found that modern people have many misconceptions about diet. Here are the 9 most common ones: Eating more fish is good for the brain
This is because people believe that fish contains a large amount of phosphorus. Professor Midiano, however, believes that phosphorus has nothing to do with memory. He suggests that to enhance memory, one should eat more carbohydrates, wheat bran, and honey. Eat fruit with the skin on
The professor insists on peeling fruit because many fruits are fertilized and sprayed with pesticides. In addition, most vitamins are stored in the pulp. Vegetarianism is healthier
It is not advisable to completely avoid meat, as meat contains substances not found in other foods. It's best to eat only fruit for breakfast
Although fruit is absorbed by the body immediately, the enzymes it produces can make a person feel even hungrier. Citric acid can disinfect
It is said that soaking seafood in citric acid can kill bacteria. In reality, no acid, including citric acid, has a disinfecting function. Eating eggs harms the liver
It is often mentioned in literature that eating eggs is harmful to the liver because they contain a large amount of cholesterol. Professor Midiano believes that eggs should only be avoided when liver disease worsens. Despite the cholesterol content, at least 4 eggs per week are needed to maintain normal life activities. It's good to fry food with sunflower oil
It is now clear that olive oil is superior to sunflower oil in cooking oil, so it's best to fry with olive oil because it releases far fewer toxic substances. Drinking aids digestion
Some people believe that "white liquor" helps with food digestion, which is also a big mistake. Alcoholic beverages not only damage the stomach but also cause the blood to absorb more toxins. Eating bread makes you fat
Some people stop eating bread for fear of gaining weight and instead eat crisp crackers and dry bread. Professor Midiano advises people to eat more fresh bread, as crisp crackers and dry bread contain more calories.
