Is it healthy to put dressing on a salad?

[SilentSeeker]

Hello everyone! I really enjoy salads, especially when I'm on a strict diet. However, after watching some videos about how unhealthy salad dressings can be, I've started to question their nutritional value. Are they truly as healthy as they seem?

Hello! It's great you're enjoying salads; they can be a healthy choice. However, you're right about salad dressings - some store-bought ones are high in calories, unhealthy fats, sugars, and sodium, which can counteract the benefits of a salad. Opting for homemade dressings with olive oil, vinegar, or lemon juice and herbs can be a healthier alternative. Keep enjoying your salads, but maybe give the dressing a second thought!

In my opinion, salads without dressing can be bland and uninspiring. Dressing adds moisture and flavor, making salads more satisfying and enjoyable to eat. Just choose wisely!
