New list of 49 foods to avoid includes some that seem healthy

By Eric Pfeiffer | The Sideshow – Fri, Feb 24, 2012

The New Zealand Medical Journal's new list of "non-essential, energy dense, nutritionally deficient" (aka NEEDNT) foods, aimed at helping educate obese people about foods to avoid, includes a number of usual suspects on the 'do not eat if you are dieting' list. Coming in at #1 (list is alphabetical, not in ascending/descending order of value) is alcohol, followed by biscuits, butter, cakes and chocolate.

But there are a few surprises among the 49 dietary offenders.

Take Muesli, that supposedly wholesome mix of oats and fruits and nuts. Turns out its almost as nutritionally bereft as a biscuit.

Muesli bars come in at 29 on the list. Dr. Jane Elmslie explained to New Zealand's National 3 News : "Muesli bars are a classic example of how overweight people can be misled into thinking they're eating healthy food. Most muesli bars are high in calories, and fat and sugar, with minimal nutritional value. Essentially they are just another form of biscuit."

Muesli is actually a repeat offender on the list, with "toasted muesli" showing up at number 47. (How times have changed: Museli was first introduced as a health food in the early 20th century.)

Honey made the list too, taking the 23rd spot. Long-used in alternative medicinal practices and in cooking, it turns out honey itself doesn't offer much in the way of nutrition, though it is a good source of natural sugar.

The final entry on the list may be the most surprising of all: yogurt. Though if you keep your yogurt plain and simple you might be safe: the list only recommends avoiding  yogurts containing more than 10mg of sugar per 100mg container.

"Energy drinks," which few people think are a health food but are nonetheless consumed by athletes, trainers and other people around the world on a daily basis, come in at #15. (The Sideshow recently wrote about the Buddhist monk billionaire who founded the 5 Hour Energy Drink. He says he has one every morning and another dose before exercising.)

Number 18 on the list is "fried foods." However, the Sideshow recently reported on a new study claiming that fried foods themselves aren't the problem; it's the oil you use to cook them in.

You can read the full list after the jump.
