6 Healthy foods that is making you put on weight

Suddenly all of us are waking up to the fact that we need to be healthier. We have started cutting out unhealthy food and snacks and replaced them with healthier substitutes.
All this is good. But sometimes no matter how healthy the food we opt for we still don’t see any results for that on the weight scale.
The market is filled with healthy food and snacks that claim to curb hunger, especially if you are kinds who eat when bored or upset.

Here are foods in the market that manufacturer claim to be healthy but are actually causing you to put on weight:

1) Low fat latte

When coffee shops cut down dietary fat they also add sugar to improve taste. These skinny lattes contain lots of added artificial sweetener and sugars that crank up your sugar levels and leave you craving more sweet junk foods.

2) Low fat muffins

All these coffee and donut shops sell something called as low fat muffins. But what they do is substitute fat with extra sugar so that it still tastes good.
You think that you are eating healthier but all that sugar is going to make you fat.

3) Protein bars

Protein bars are often made using lots of sugar, artificial sweeteners and other junk ingredients that are masked by using terms like ‘organic’.
Basically these are like candy bars with a little extra fiber crunch to it.

4) Healthy cookies

Bake your own healthy cookie and curb your appetite.

5) Baked chips
