Some answers to your nutri questions: Did you know that Sushi contains sugar? Did you know that losing weight doesn’t reduce the number of fat cells in your body? Did you know that drinking too much water is bad for you?

Did you know that Sushi contains sugar?

But if you are a sushi lover don’t worry it doesn’t contain that much sugar! Just careful with the quantity you eat, too much rice, sugar and salt at the same meal and day can be very bad to control your weight! To prepare sushi, sugar is needed to give rice an ideal consistency. For every cup of rice, 1 full table spoon of sugar is needed.

Did you know that losing weight doesn’t reduce the number of fat cells in your body?

Actually it reduces the size of fat cells available in your body but not the number of cells. Fat cells are made during childhood so if you are overweight or obese during childhood you determine the number of fat cells you will have in your entire life increasing the chance to be overweight or obese when older because of the high number of fat cells available.

Did you know that drinking too much water is bad for you?

This is because huge volumes of liquid can cause water intoxication and lead to gastrointestinal pain and vomiting. It can also lead to hyponatremia which is low blood level of sodium that can lead to death. So careful, drinking too little water is bad, but drinking too much can be bad too! Moderation is everything in life!
