We’ve all heard them—food rules passed down like gospel:
“Carbs make you fat.”
“Don’t eat after 7pm.”
“Clean eating is the only way to get results.”

But here’s the truth: most of these myths do more harm than good.
They fuel confusion, guilt, and all-or-nothing behaviour that keeps you stuck.

Let’s clear the air—and the plate.

“Carbs Make You Fat”
Nope. Overeating any food can lead to fat gain—carbs included.
But carbs also fuel your training, brain, and recovery.
Cutting them too low? That’ll tank your energy and sabotage performance.

“You Shouldn’t Eat After 7pm”
Your body doesn’t know what time it is.
What matters most is what you eat and how much—not when.
Late-night snacks aren’t the enemy. Overeating mindlessly is.

“Clean Eating Is the Only Way”
Rigid food rules create guilt, not results.
You don’t need to eat ‘perfectly’ to make progress.
Balanced, sustainable eating—where all foods can fit—is what actually works long-term.

 “Protein Is Just for Bodybuilders”
Protein supports recovery, appetite regulation, and muscle maintenance—especially when dieting.
Everyone benefits from getting enough—not just those chasing big biceps.

Conclusion:
Food myths sound convincing. But they keep you stuck in fear, confusion, and frustration.
Let go of the noise.
Learn what actually works—and watch your progress take off.
