01 Fruits juices
Drinking fruit juices every morning may seem like
a healthy alternative, but it is not. Most of the
fruit juices available in the market have zero
nutritional value and are loaded with added
sugar. Also, fruit juices have no fiber, which
means they wont give you that fullness like
fruit. Instead of drinking fruit juice, eat
whole fruit, which gives you the effect of
fullness and lots of nutrients.

Salads are the best food for weight loss, but
its the dressing that is your enemy. There is no

making it at home if you are going to drizzle it
same mayonnaise dressing.

high-fat content. It also contains a lot of
sodium, which is definitely harmful to you.
Make your own dressing with hung curd or lemon
juice and avoid too much parmesan cheese to avoid
unnecessary calories.
