The Best (and Worst) Condiments
Even when you are following a diet of lean proteins, whole grains, and lots of fruits and vegetables, you can still gain weight. The likely cause: Condiments! What we often think is a healthy condiment is not, and this simple mistake can turn a meal from healthy to full of fat and empty calories. Here is a quick guide of what condiments you should skip, plus five healthier options.
THE WORST
|
Mayonnaise: Mayo is the highest in fat of all condiments
and there is really NOTHING healthy about it. Putting just
2 tablespoons of mayo on your sandwich adds 198 calories,
157 mg of sodium and 21 grams of fat! That is basically the
equivalent of adding a doughnut as a topping. If you
simply must have mayo, look for one that is made with
100% olive oil, instead of soybean oil.
Ketchup: Although ketchup is made from tomatoes and is
low in calories and fat, it is still very high in sodium
and sugar, with most brands using high fructose corn
syrup. Dieters, who overdo it with ketchup, can expect
excess weight in the form of water retention from all of
the added salt. Keep the portion small and look for
low-sodium versions.
Barbeque Sauce: BBQ sauce is actually worse than
ketchup, because it has higher levels of sugar (or high
fructose corn syrup) and lower levels of natural tomato.
BBQ sauce offers almost no nutritional value, 300-400 mg of
sodium (almost a third of a healthy day’s dose), and about
40 calories.
Salad Dressings: There really is isn’t anything healthy
about store bought salad dressings. Most of them contain
high fructose corn syrup, too much salt, soybean oil or
unhealthy canola oil as the main ingredient. Even the
“fat-free” versions are simply loaded with extra sugar,
and typically Italian and Ranch are the worst options.
Stick with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and a
splash of balsamic or red wine vinegar.
|
THE BEST
|
Mustard: Mustard is by far one of the healthiest
condiments. It has no added sugar, few calories and
no fat. Plus, the mustard seed itself is a source of
antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Most versions also contain the powerful antioxidants,
paprika and turmeric (one of the healthiest,
anti-cancer spices). Yellow mustard is the best,
but Spicy mustard, Dijon mustard and Honey mustard are
also acceptable options.
Guacamole: Creamy guacamole makes everything taste
better and is also very healthy. Avocados contain lots of
healthy fats (which satisfy your appetite and regulate
hormone balance), lots of fiber and plenty of vitamins,
minerals and antioxidants. Just monitor your serving
size and be careful of unhealthy pre-made guacamole from
the store, which can have added trans fat and other
artificial ingredients. Watch your portion size,
skip the high calorie tortilla chips and use cucumber
slices or fresh veggies instead.
Salsa: Salsa makes the very healthy list,
as it is mostly made of just vegetables and almost
never has added sugars. With only 10 calories for a
two tablespoon serving, salsa is a delicious mix of
tomatoes, garlic, onions and jalapenos. This versatile
condiment is also low in sodium, fat free and can be used
to top burgers, fish, tacos or even salads.
Hummus: Hummus is made from chickpeas, tahini, garlic,
lemon and olive oil, and is one of the healthiest condiments
or snack options. Hummus is full of fiber, has 3 grams of
healthy fat, is low in sodium and has a mayo “like”
richness, but without the fat or calories. Vegetables
and hummus make the perfect snack, and it’s also
delicious on a sandwich or on top of meat dishes.
Pesto: Pesto is typically comprised of basil, garlic,
pine nuts, olive oil and grated cheese. It is a great
source of healthy fats, and powerful antioxidants from
the garlic and basil. It goes very well with sandwiches,
grilled chicken, as a dip or to top off a serving of
whole wheat pasta.
Hot Sauce: Hot sauce is a fairly healthy option,
as most hot sauces are calorie free and don’t have added
sugars. The hot peppers are actually good for you, and can
even cause a slight and temporary metabolism boost.
Just be sure to check the labels and to use in moderation,
as some options can be high in sodium.
