Hitting the gym won’t help people deal with unhealthy eating habits, according to a new study.

New study proves exercise can’t compensate for a poor diet

Hitting the gym won&rsquo;t help people deal with unhealthy eating habits, according to a new study.

If you think you can counter the ill-effects of daily takeouts, and ordering out by hitting the gym regularly, we have some bad news for you! According to a new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, exercise can&rsquo;t compensate for the adverse and long-term impact of unhealthy food on our health. The findings come from a 11-year-long study which assessed the diet patterns of 360,000 adults. According to the study, a &lsquo;bad&rsquo; or &lsquo;unhealthy&rsquo; diet was one comprising &ldquo;low fruit and vegetable intake, no fish, and lots of red meat, especially processed meat.&rdquo; The results suggested that the participants who engaged in high levels of physical activity while practicing a healthy diet had the lowest risks of death compared to their counterparts who were not only physically inactive but also had poor diets. Lead researcher of the study Melody Ding claimed that while many people may think that they could offset the impacts of a poor diet with high levels of exercise or offset the impacts of low physical activity with a high-quality diet, data has shown that this is not the case. Long story short, the study suggested exercise and a good diet go hand in hand, and balance is the key to a healthy life!

How many minutes should you exercise to stay healthy? A new study has some insights to share!

According to a new study, 2 minutes of vigorous physical activity that is 15 minutes a week is associated with a reduced risk of death, cancer and heart disease.&nbsp;

If you are among those who don't get time to hit the gym every day, then there is a good news for you!
According to a study published in European Heart Journal, 2 minutes of vigorous physical activity 15 minutes a week can reduce the risk of early death, cancer and heart disease.&nbsp;
For the study, researchers enrolled 71,893 adults without any evidence of cardiovascular disease or cancer. They analysed associations between how much and how often people undertook vigorous physical activity.&nbsp;
The team found that participants who did no vigorous workouts had a 4% risk of dying within five years. This risk was halved to 2% with less than 10 minutes of weekly vigorous activity and to 1% when people worked out for 60 minutes or more.

In a bid to help people eat healthy, scientists have developed a Food Compass that scores over 8,000 foods based on their overall healthfulness and drawbacks.

Want to eat healthy? Let this new scientific Food Compass be your guide

Snacks and sweet desserts are the lowest-scoring categories in a new healthful ranking of foods.

Snacks and sweet desserts are the lowest-scoring categories in a new healthful ranking of foods.

The science of food can be pretty intimidating with numerous studies and claims coming up every day. In a bid to solve this conundrum, scientists have&nbsp;developed a &lsquo;Food Compass&rsquo; that scores over 8,000 foods based on their overall healthfulness and drawbacks.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Raspberries took the top spot with a perfect 100 score. The high&nbsp;rankers&nbsp;were fruits with an average score of 73.9, vegetables at 69.1 and legumes, nuts, and seeds, got&nbsp;an average score of 78.6.&nbsp;While the&nbsp;lowest-scoring category was snacks and sweet desserts with an average score of 16.4.

Published in the journal Nature, the study also assessed complete foods like a pizza or a burger and had some intriguing findings. For example, it was found that&nbsp;a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with white bread had a very similar score as a grilled cheese sandwich with whole wheat bread.&nbsp;Similarly, a thick crust, extra meat pizza scored 6 points higher than&nbsp;corn flakes cereal.&nbsp;
The team says this is the first consistent food profiling system and&nbsp;can help in comparing combinations of food and beverages for a person&rsquo;s daily diet pattern, or perhaps a portfolio of foods sold by a particular company.

If you&rsquo;ve ever snooped around a supermarket looking for nourishing foods, you must have come across products with&nbsp;tags like healthy, lite, low-fat&nbsp;and more recently, antioxidant-rich or immunity-boosting and so on.&nbsp;
No matter how unfamiliar, expensive or foreign these products sound, we do often fall for their tall promises and leave traditional food behind because&nbsp;they just don&rsquo;t have the same marketing budget.&nbsp;&nbsp;
This practice is called &lsquo;health washing.&rsquo; Celebrity nutritionist Rujuta&nbsp;Diwekar&nbsp;spoke out&nbsp;about the practice&nbsp;calling it the &lsquo;act of villainising or romanticising&rsquo; certain food products, nutrients or ingredients that have been promoted by the food giants to keep their own profits rising.
One of the most problematic things about &lsquo;health washing&rsquo; is that you may be sold food that&nbsp;is&nbsp;actually harmful, packaged&nbsp;in a healthy avatar.&nbsp;Here are five such foods that are the most common culprits.&nbsp;
TRAIL MIX&nbsp;
Nuts, seeds and dried fruit...&nbsp;sounds&nbsp;healthy,&nbsp;right? The contents of a trail mix&nbsp;could be&nbsp;healthy enough but they can also carry added sugars&nbsp;or have&nbsp;additional&nbsp;chocolate or candies.&nbsp;Look out for such extras on the ingredient list to make a wise choice.&nbsp;&nbsp;
FLAVOURED YOGHURT&nbsp;
Colourful yoghurts taste fruity and delicious but their benefits are often masked by the added sugar and flavouring substances. You should also be careful of&nbsp;&lsquo;sugar-free&rsquo; yoghurt as it may contain&nbsp;aspartame which is an artificial sweetener&nbsp;known&nbsp;to cause digestive trouble in some people.
BAKED VEGGIE CHIPS&nbsp;
Made with vegetables and famous for their non-fried appeal, baked veggie chips don&rsquo;t actually give you the benefits of vegetables. Like any other chips, they are just simple carbs and don&rsquo;t keep you full for very long.&nbsp;If you keep munching on them, the empty calories add up quickly.
FLAVOURED OATMEAL&nbsp;OR GRANOLA&nbsp;
Instant oatmeal is a wholesome fibre and iron-rich snack with a little bit of protein. But these benefits are cut-off when&nbsp;you&nbsp;buy flavoured oatmeal&nbsp;or granola that comes with things like maple syrups, sugared dry fruits or oils.&nbsp;You&rsquo;re much better off buying plain oatmeal and adding your own toppings.
ROASTED NUTS
Nuts are high in protein and full of good minerals but the story of packaged nuts isn&rsquo;t as simple. While not all&nbsp;roasted nuts are bad,&nbsp;but&nbsp;varieties like&nbsp;honey-roasted or&nbsp;smoked&nbsp;cheese&nbsp;could be red flags. These may pack more salt, sugar and pure calories than you realise.&nbsp;&nbsp;
All in all, being a smart shopper means avoiding being fooled by buzzwords and reading the fine print!&nbsp;&nbsp;

Don’t fall for healthwashing! The notorious case of sneaky ‘health foods’ 

If you&rsquo;ve ever snooped around a supermarket looking for nourishing foods, you must have come across products with&nbsp;tags healthy, lite, low-fat&nbsp;and more recently, antioxidant-rich or immunity-boosting and so on.&nbsp;

Foods sold as healthy, lite, low-fat etc. are often far from actually being healthy. Learn about some foods that are common culprits of health washing.&nbsp;

You might have heard&nbsp;people&nbsp;ramble about the benefits of eating raw fruits and vegetables for&nbsp;their&nbsp;so-called healthful benefits.&nbsp;While raw may be a great choice in many cases but raw is not always better! Did you know that there are&nbsp;some&nbsp;vegetables&nbsp;that are&nbsp;actually&nbsp;more nutritious when cooked?&nbsp;
Let&nbsp;us walk you through some veggies that&nbsp;are&nbsp;healthier after cooking and what&rsquo;s the best&nbsp;way to&nbsp;prepare&nbsp;them&nbsp;to reap the maximum benefits:&nbsp;
SPINACH&nbsp;
This green leafy veg is loaded with folate but you must first steam spinach to enable your body to absorb all the calcium and iron. This is because spinach contains&nbsp;oxalic acid, which blocks the absorption of iron and calcium but it can be broken down under high temperatures, so blanch away!&nbsp;
CARROT&nbsp;
We are often advised to snack on raw carrots but your body actually absorbs more beta-carotene from this crunchy veg once it is boiled.&nbsp;It is best to boil carrots whole before slicing to ensure that valuable nutrients don&rsquo;t seep out into the cooking water.&nbsp;&nbsp;
TOMATO&nbsp;
Red, juicy tomatoes are full of lycopene but a 2002 study discovered that cooking tomatoes for about 30 minutes increased the&nbsp;absorbable lycopene by 35 per cent. Instead of throwing raw tomatoes into a salad, it might be a better idea to roast them in the oven&nbsp;for half an hour.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
RED BELL PEPPER&nbsp;
Just like tomatoes, red bell peppers are also full of lycopene and this is why roasting or stir-frying them makes the lycopene far more digestible. Since cooking will reduce the vitamin C content in the&nbsp;pepper&nbsp;so our advice would be to not cook them for more than 10 minutes.&nbsp;&nbsp;
BROCCOLI &amp; CAULIFLOWER&nbsp;
Broccoli and cauliflower&nbsp;are cruciferous vegetables rich&nbsp;in fibres raffinose and cellulose which can lead to flatulence in many people. To combat this problem, it is great to chop them up and either lightly roast or steam them before eating.&nbsp;&nbsp;
SPROUTS&nbsp;&nbsp;
While cooking may be optional for some of the veggies we have discussed so far, the US CDC advises against eating raw sprouts. This is because they are essentially baby seeds, germinated in warm and moist conditions. They are&nbsp;often contaminated with bacteria that cause&nbsp;foodborne illness&nbsp;so&nbsp;it's&nbsp;better to roast or quickly boil them&nbsp;before eating.&nbsp;&nbsp;
