1) Hydrogenated Fats
These are mostly man-made fats used in bakery items and stick margarine.

2) Olestra

Olestra is a fake fat, used to make non-fat potato chips and other snacks.

3) Nitrates

Many foods, especially cured meats such as bacon and hot dogs, use nitrates to preserve color and maintain microbial safety.

4) Alcohol

This one item has created more problems than all the rest put together, of course moderation, as always, is key

5) Raw Oysters

Raw oysters can carry deadly bacteria that can cause severe illness or death.

6) Saturated Animal Fats

That means fatty meats, especially beef and pork, or the skin on poultry.

7) Soda

Drinking soda is a poor way to get fluids.

8) Low-Acid Home-Canned Foods

Home canning can be dangerous for foods low in acid such as green beans, carrots or other garden vegetables.

9) High-Fat Snacks, Chips

Even if they are made with vegetable oil, they should be minimized.

10) Liquid Meals

They aren’t inherently bad for you, but they do keep you from eating whole, natural foods that contain more nutrients and fiber and disease-fighting photochemicals.
