We’re debunking common food myths about sugar, fat—even deep-fried food—and more so you can feel good about enjoying the foods you love.
10 Nutrition Myths, Debunked
Some nutrition myths bounce around on crazy e-mail chain letters and pop up on goofy evening news reports. Others fuel the
sale of rip-off diet books. Some are so accepted they seem hardwired into our brains. Take deep-fried foods, for example.

without that old familiar twinge of guilt.
