3/9 Yoghurts: Surprised to see this name? Well, we were always misled to believe yoghurts to be in the list of the healthy food items.

4/9 Table Salt: Table salt is basically a kind of processed salt containing some chemicals like Ferrocyanide, talc and silica which can be harmful to our bodies. Table salt is unhealthy in the sense that it lacks the essential component found in the real salt known as the trace mineral. So, it seems that you need to throw away table salt from your kitchen for good if you want to stay healthy.

5/9 Canned Meals: Canned meals can never be healthy. Canned foods are prepared using different kinds of preservatives so they can last longer, which means, their original nutrient value gets reduced. Some may also contain refined salt and added sugar which is not good for the health either.

6/9 Biscuits, Cakes, And Sweets: People often look for quick bites when they are hungry and don’t have enough time to prepare any meal.

You should have a bite of an apple every time you crave for these unhealthy items.
