How eating burgers over salads can help you lose weight | Fox News – Fox News

Burgers are bad, right? Nope. The dish could actually be a better choice than a so-called superfood salad if youre trying to trim down.

Healthy burgers made of a bun, beef, lamborchicken patty, a slice of bacon, cheese and lettuce could contain fewer calories than cafe-style superfood salads that are loaded with high calorie haloumi, nuts, seeds and fatty dressings, a nutrition expert says.

But before you reach for a greasy Big Mac or Huxtaburger and fries, there are a few rules to consider.

A nutrition analysis shows the average superfood bowl made up of ingredients including quinoa, chicken and feta contains at least 820 calories, while a burger has about 740 calories, according to a leading Melbourne-based fitness coach and diet expert.

The theory that a salad is healthy versus an unhealthy burger is misconstrued, Jacob Schepis, of JPS Health & Fitness, told News Corp Australia.

They add a lot of tasty extras to a salad and it ends up becoming more calorie-dense than a burger.

Thats not to say a salad doesnt contain more micronutrients, vitamins and minerals than the burger, but at the end of the day, eating more calories than what we think isnt healthy either.

Thats why sometimes, a burger actually has less calories than a salad.
