Sydney’s mom, Rebecca Gawthorne, better known as Nourished Naturally on Instagram, shared a video detailing exactly what she would buy and avoid when navigating the “health food aisle.”
The shelves in this aisle are filled with products that are considered “healthier” compared to others, including sugar-free chocolate, low-carb, and protein powder.
Rebecca picked up first a bag of toasted pumpkin seeds and then a package of sugar-free cookies and compared them.
She said pumpkin seeds are “rich in healthy fats and a good source of nutrients like magnesium and zinc” and recommends this purchase.
By comparison, the chocolate chip cookies were ‘too processed’ and she would prefer a ‘regular cookie without all the additives’.
Next, she grabbed a bag of sugar free cookies that were ‘over processed’ and would prefer a ‘regular cookie without all the additives’. Rebecca also suggested buying virgin coconut oil infrequently.
‘Next we have virgin coconut oil. This is an overhyped health product high in saturated fat and I prefer to buy other oils as my main cooking oil,” he said, adding, “I wouldn’t buy this on a regular basis.”
She then chose dry roasted mixed nuts which are an “excellent source of healthy fats” and contain plant-based protein, including iron.
Rebecca recommended this purchase.
After 48 hours, the video was viewed more than 31,000 times and many thanked Rebecca for sharing her recommendations.
‘Very helpful,’ wrote one person, another added: ‘Thank you for this clear information!’
A third asked what oil she would suggest, to which Rebecca replied, “Extra virgin olive oil is a great option for most of you who cook at home.”
