Expert reveals which nutrition myths to ignore. Kerry Beeson, qualified Nutritional Therapist at Prep Kitchen, has revealed the TikTok nutrition myths that you should ignore. Myth: Only 30g of protein can be absorbed at one time. Protein is a hot topic in the fitness industry, and it has been suggested that our bodies can only absorb 30g of protein at a time. ”In actuality, the body will metabolise any amount of protein that we eat, and we mustn't forget that protein has a multitude of other uses in the body as well as building muscle.” Myth: Eating before bed will make you gain weight. You have probably been told not to eat too close to bedtime because it will make you gain weight. ”It shouldn't make any difference when you eat your daily calories, as long as you burn off as many as you consume each day.” Myth: The carnivore diet is the healthiest diet. It is commonly believed that a diet featuring meat and protein products is the healthiest option. ”But it lacks other vitamins and antioxidants, healthier fats, and the fibre needed to support a healthy gut microbiome, which we know is vital for good health.” Myth: Seed oils are bad for you. According to Kerry, seed oils are objectively quite healthy because they're typically low in saturated fats. ”Many seed oils contain beneficial nutrients like antioxidants, linolenic acid, and some contain small amounts of Omega 3. We don't make these fats in the body so we must obtain them from the diet.”
