Did               you               know,               that               a               fast               food               cheeseburger               has               more               nutrients               in               it               than               an               apple?

Yeah,               neither               did               I,               until               I               picked               up               Covert               Bailey               and               Ronda               Gate's               Smart               Eating:               Choosing               Wisely,               Living               Lean               .

But               before               you               go               tossing               away               your               fresh               fruit               and               running               to               the               nearest               fast               food               joint               (not               that               any               of               you               would,               I               just               had               a               picture               of               myself               doing               that),               let               me               point               out               that,               despite               this               amazing               food               fact,               eating               a               McDonald's               Big               Mac               every               day               is               not               smart               at               all;               on               the               contrary,               you'd               probably               blow               up               like               a               balloon,               following               in               Morgan               Spurlock's               footsteps               on               Super               Size               Me               .

So               you're               probably               wondering               exactly               then,               how               a               fruit               that               was               once               followed               by               the               phrase,               "An               apple               a               day,               keeps               the               doctor               away"               is               not               as               healthy               as               a               burger.

The               catch               is,               it's               not               necessarily               less               healthy;               it               just               holds               less               nutrients               altogether.

Good               Nutrients               and               Bad               Stuff
               What               do               I               mean               by               "less               nutrients               altogether               "?

Well,               Bailey               and               Gates               (authors               of               Smart               Eating:               Choosing               Wisely,               Living               Lean               )               have               done               a               pretty               awesome               job               in               explaining               the               method.

They               put               together               a               fine               chart               of               each               food               item:               the               apple,               and               the               cheeseburger.
               For               a               single               chart,               imagine               two               triangles,               one               on               top               of               the               other,               with               both               of               them               pointing               their               tips               at               each               other,               sort               of               like               a               two               pieces               of               pie.

On               top               is               the               nutrients,               while               on               the               bottom               is               the               bad               stuff.

For               the               apple,               if               you               could               imagine               the               diagram,               you               would               see               two               very               narrow               pie               pieces               facing               each               other.

So               that               means               that               while               the               bad               nutrients               on               the               bottom               is               very               limited               (sugar,               empty               calories,               etc.),               the               nutrients               piece               (vitamins)               on               top               is               also               very               narrow.

Basically,               you               would               have               to               eat               a               lot               of               apples               to               get               any               real               dose               of               vitamins               out               of               the               fruit.
               For               a               cheeseburger,               imagine               the               same               chart               with               the               two               pie               pieces               facing               one               another.

This               time,               the               one               on               top               is               greatly               increased,               and               wallah!

That's               where               we               get               the               good               nutrients               (protein,               iron,               calcium),               and               therefore               that's               how               a               fast               food               cheeseburger               takes               the               crown               of               having               more               nutrients               than               that               narrow               piece               we               saw               with               the               apple.

Now               here's               the               bad               thing               about               the               burger;               if               you               guessed               that               the               bottom               pie               piece               has               also               greatly               increased,               then               you're               correct.

In               fact,               the               bottom               piece               is               much               fatter               than               the               top,               due               to               the               bad               stuff,               like               more               empty               calories               and               fat.
               But               don't               let               the               idea               of               eating               a               burger               get               you               down,               and               don't               push               the               idea               of               an               apple               away               either.

They               both               taste               great,               and               having               a               burger               occasionally               won't               kill               you,               nor               will               having               an               apple-or               lots               and               lots               of               apples               for               that               matter!
