Hi Neighbors! Did you know that in this modern era there are still many misconceptions about food. Usually these fake facts are often spread through the WhatsApp chat application. Therefore, in this article I will discuss myths about food.

Cooking oil contains cholesterol

Many people, including Minkan's parents, are afraid of oils such as palm oil, coconut oil from coconut milk, and other vegetable oils. Even though the fact is that vegetable oils do not contain cholesterol because they come from plants, while cholesterol comes from animal fats.

Heated spinach will be poisonous

Is it true that heated Spinach can turn into poison? of course not that easy! basically all food that is heated too often is not good to eat. Heating food too often can produce carcinogens in food and trigger cancer. However, heating Spinach just once is not fatal.

Goat meat triggers hypertension

This is a misconception that has been passed down from generation to generation. Goat meat itself does not trigger hypertension. However, processing goat meat such as roasting or frying it with butter certainly adds to the fat content which exacerbates hypertension.

Milk makes the body tall

Surely Neighbors have often campaigned for drinking milk with various benefits, including increasing height. In children who need calcium intake, of course, milk is beneficial for the growth and development of children. But in adults, height is not the result of milk intake but from the genetic inheritance of both parents.
