It’s April Fool’s Day and we don’t want you to be fooled by common misconceptions about your health. Dr. Patrick Wright with Cone Health Community Health & Wellness Center debunks some common health myths and sets the record straight.

Myth #1: Food package labels that say "all-natural," “low-fat” or “organic” are healthier options.
"I teach my patients to look at nutrition labels and I also teach my patients to shop around the edges of grocery stores to the fruit and vegetable section," explained Dr. Wright. He also encourages you to look at the small print for the added sugar, salt, and corn syrup. He says processed foods can have hidden toxins that can increase your blood pressure and make you a pre-diabetic.

Myth #2: Eating healthy is expensive.
