Stop believing these common nutrition myths. Here's what the science actually says about eating for results.
Myth-Busting Time
The fitness industry is full of nutrition misinformation. From 'eating after 8pm makes you fat' to 'you need to eat every 2 hours,' these myths distract from what actually matters: total calories, protein intake, and consistency.
Nutrition doesn't have to be complicated — ignore the noise
The Big 3 Myths
1. 'Carbs make you fat' — No, excess calories do. Carbs fuel your workouts.
2. 'You need to eat 6 meals a day' — Meal frequency doesn't matter for fat loss. Total intake does.
3. 'Fat-free means healthy' — Often means more sugar. Dietary fat is essential for hormones.
What Actually Matters
Focus on these fundamentals: hit your protein target (1.6-2.2g/kg), eat mostly whole foods, stay in a calorie deficit for fat loss or surplus for muscle gain, and be consistent. That's 90% of the game.
