00:01Not everything in your supermarket is as healthy as it may seem or even remotely worth the cost.
00:06So don't be deceived by products that reel you in with promises of great health.
00:10Let's explore five seemingly healthy foods that nutritionists say to keep out of your shopping cart.
00:15Yogurt may be great for digestion and a quality source of calcium and protein,
00:19but lose the sugar that comes with the flavored variety.
00:22Spend about five bucks on a large tub of plain Chobani and sweeten it yourself with fruit and honey.
00:27It'll save you the money and the calories.
00:30Fan of those yummy veggie chips?
00:32They're totally healthy, right?
00:33They're veggie.
00:34Wrong.
00:35The ingredients are a long list of additives and starches and calories that amount to the same as a serving of potato chips.
00:41Spring for the real thing and just eat actual veggies.
00:44Say goodbye to bottled salad dressings.
00:46With lots of processed oil, added sugar and artificial colors,
00:50it's healthier and cheaper for you to trade them out for simple olive oil, vinegar and delicious herbs.
00:55Make your own dressing and save the bottles for the shelf.
00:58Cold pressed juices are a staple for many looking to live healthy.
01:02But hold the juice and save the cash.
01:04Juicing fruits or vegetables may seem like it's ideal for your diet,
01:07but it actually strips away the beneficial fiber and leaves nothing but the sugar behind.
01:12Eat your fruits instead.
01:14Save your money and don't go gluten free unless it's necessary.
01:17Those who haven't been diagnosed with celiac disease or a gluten sensitivity should save their pennies from the significant gluten free product markup.
01:25And packaged foods aren't ideal for a healthy diet anyway.
01:29?...
01:31CoIn it, life well spent.
