You don't need to walk for hours to change your health. You don't even need 10,000 steps🚶‍♀️

The biggest health gains come from going from sedentary to just moderately active. That's it. Even 4,000-5,000 steps daily (about 30 minutes) makes a real difference.

🥬 MYTH BUSTER: "Raw vegetables are always healthier"
TRUTH: Cooking releases lycopene in tomatoes (+164%), beta-carotene in carrots (+34%). Some nutrients decrease, others increase. Stop the raw obsession - variety beats dogma! 🍅 #MacroMate #CookedVsRaw

🥥 MYTH BUSTER: "Coconut oil is a superfood"
TRUTH: 82% saturated fat makes it one of the most saturated fats on Earth - higher than butter! The "medium-chain" hype doesn't override basic heart health. Save your arteries, save your money 💰 #MacroMate #NutritionFacts

Thinking of making the switch?

Swapped my usual coffee for matcha and didn’t expect much…
but the difference was obvious.

The energy feels clean and steady. No jitters, no crash.
My focus is sharper, my head feels clearer, and I’m not wired.

🧠 MYTH BUSTER: "Eating late makes you gain weight"
TRUTH: Your body doesn't have a magical midnight switch. Weight gain comes from eating more calories than you burn - timing is irrelevant. Night shift workers aren't doomed! Focus on WHAT and HOW MUCH, not WHEN ⏰ #MacroMate

🍯 MYTH BUSTER: "Honey is way healthier than sugar"
TRUTH: Honey = 82% sugar, Table sugar = 99.9% sugar. That 17%? Mostly water + trace nutrients. Both spike blood sugar. #MacroMate #Health

💊 MYTH BUSTER: "Detox teas cleanse toxins"
TRUTH: Your liver and kidneys are detox champions working 24/7 for FREE. Those £30 teas? Just expensive laxatives that dehydrate you. Trust your organs - they've got this covered! 🫘 #MacroMate #DetoxMyth

🌾 MYTH BUSTER: "Gluten is inflammatory for everyone"
TRUTH: Only 1% have celiac, 6% have sensitivity. For 93% of people, gluten is harmless protein. Going gluten-free unnecessarily can reduce fiber intake and increase costs by 300%! 📈 #MacroMate #GlutenFree

🥩 MYTH BUSTER: "Red meat causes instant inflammation"
TRUTH: PROCESSED red meat (bacon, sausages) shows health links. FRESH red meat? Studies are mixed. Context matters: a 200g steak ≠ daily pepperoni pizza. Nuance beats fear-mongering 🔬 #MacroMate

🧈 MYTH BUSTER: "Butter is back and healthy now"
TRUTH: Saturated fat research is nuanced, not a green light for unlimited butter. It's calorie-dense (717 cals/100g) and easy to overeat. Moderation still wins - sorry, keto warriors! 🧮 #MacroMate #SaturatedFat

🍎 MYTH BUSTER: "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"
TRUTH: Apples are great, but this Victorian saying has zero scientific backing. You need variety! 30+ different plants weekly beats mono-fruit obsession. Diversify your portfolio 📊 #MacroMate #PlantDiversity
