Aside from having the time to choose what you want to eat, you can also <em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">check the labels of these foods<\/span><\/em>\u2014especially your favorite health drink\u2014by yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When shopping for health drinks, make sure that you avoid those who have the following ingredients in them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>&#8211; phosphoric acid.<\/strong><\/em> This acid is the clear, colorless liquid that is usually used in detergents, fertilizers, food flavoring and other pharmaceuticals products. This should be avoided because it can lead to the <em>irritation of the skin<\/em> as well as the eyes once ingested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>&#8211; high fructose corn syrup.<\/em><\/strong> This is a concentrated sugar, which is the major cause of <em>weight gain<\/em> in many people especially to women. Aside from being among those that leads to obesity, high fructose corn syrup in some health drinks can also lead to <em>abnormal blood sugar levels<\/em> that may lead to chronic illnesses such <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">diabetes<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>&#8211; artificial flavors and sweeteners.<\/em><\/strong> More commonly called as &#8220;excito-toxins,&#8221; artificial flavorings are common in most health drinks that are flavored-based. These artificial flavors are the same ones that you may find in sweet juices, colas and candy bars. Health drinks that have these in them should be avoided to prevent <em>pH imbalances<\/em> in the blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>&#8211; processed vitamins.<\/em><\/strong> Many people don\u2019t realize it but not all vitamins can be healthy especially if these are <em>liquefied, isolated,<\/em> and <em>heated.<\/em> This is because these vitamins and minerals are proven to break down before the body can benefit from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other things to look for include <em><strong>glycerol ester of wood resin<\/strong> <\/em>because these are acid forming, the <strong><em>modified food starch<\/em><\/strong>, and the <strong><em>yellow 6, yellow 5<\/em><\/strong> and <em><strong>red 40 <\/strong><\/em>because these are all artificial coloring or dyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Looking for the healthy health drink<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although looking for a healthy drink can take some of your precious time, this will be worth it because you can <em>ensure<\/em> that you are taking in <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">healthy elements<\/span> that your body needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More than ever, the trend of healthy living is so popular right now.
