8. Refined grains

9. Ice cream and full-fat sweetened yogurt

Therefore, it's better to opt for plain low-fat yogurt instead - you can add in your own fruit and other toppings, after all. As for ice cream, it, too, is full of sugar and saturated fat, so it can really drive up your triglyceride levels and could even potentially lead to a heart attack.
