JAKARTA - On social media, many people share daily habits that are claimed to be healthy. These habits have even become popular and are followed by social media users.

However, quoted from Huffpost, on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, some of the healthy habits that are popular in 2025 are actually unhealthy. Here are some of them that you should know.

1. Consumption of protein in large quantities

Protein is an important macronutrient that turns food into energy and even helps clean bacteria. However, lately the habit of consuming it in large quantities is popular because it is considered healthy.

In fact, excessive consumption is not recommended. The licensed professional coordinator and clinical instructor, Melodie Simmons, said that good protein consumption should still be balanced with other nutritional intake.

"Although protein is important, obsession is not health. A better way: Provide balanced nutrition that includes carbohydrates, fats, bags, fiber, and protein," Simmons said.

2. Eat only when you are hungry

Another habit that turns out to be unhealthy that is increasingly popular is eating only when you feel hungry. This habit can interfere with the health of the body, such as reduced nutritional intake and causes malnutrition.

"Waiting for food only when you feel hungry can often cause insufficient food intake throughout the day, which can result in irregular or chaotic diets of dinner, or even un met and malnourished nutritional needs," said denitologist Nikki Fata.

3. Exercise without holidays

Exercise is indeed an activity that can support the health of the body. However, doing so should not be excessive and still have to spend time off on the body to rest.

"Forcing yourself beyond the limits of ability will also lead to injuries that require more rest than if you initially rest sufficient," Simmons concluded.
