Here are some of the most common misconceptions:
Myth 1: Ice cream is cold and “harmful to the body” because it causes gallbladder cramps and digestive issues.
In reality, cold foods may cause short-term cramps for individuals with gallbladder or intestinal issues, but they pose no harm to healthy individuals.
Myth 2: Ice cream causes a sharp spike in blood sugar and is dangerous for diabetics.
While people with insulin resistance or diabetes should indeed be cautious about how often and how much ice cream they consume, it doesn’t mean they must completely eliminate it from their diet. Moderation and following a doctor's guidance are key.
Myth 3: Ice cream is just empty calories and unhealthy fats.
High-quality ice cream actually contains milk fat, protein, calcium, and magnesium — all of which are beneficial for bones and teeth. The key is to choose natural ice cream free from artificial additives and coloring.
The Bottom Line
Ice cream is not an enemy of health. It can be a tasty and nutritious dessert when chosen wisely and consumed in moderation. Most of the fears surrounding it are exaggerated and based on misunderstandings of how the body functions.
