Are commercially produced low fat and low sugar products good for you?
[source - Facebook]
What do you think? Agree or disagree? Once upon a time, when I was naive and believed that fat-free yoghurt was the better option. I started to read the labels of food products and was really shocked at the amount of sugar I was eating. Not only that, low sugar food are traps too. They could have artificial sweeteners and other chemicals to create that sweet flavour. What a oxymoron!
Supermarkets are flooded with low fat and low sugar products - have you noticed? They target health conscious shoppers to buy.
I proudly sit in the disagree corner.
Here is my viewpoint with eating food coming from a culmination of wisdom and sensibility.
Eat small amounts of food, just enough to satisfy the tummy and aim for a balance of fruit, vegetables, protein food and carbs such as pasta and rice everyday. Sounds easy doesn't it? Who can stick to a strict diet day in and day out? I don't! Eat some ice-cream, cake, biscuits, chocolate now and then. Enjoy and don't feel guilty. As long as it is done in moderation I figured that it is okay.
Good home cook meals are the best - one has control of the sugar and fat. It is all about choice.
Goodbye from me - enjoy your day and the food you eat.
@angiemitchell, If you thinking it commercially, then why not?
There are commercially produced heath foods in supermarkets too for shoppers. They are usually more expensive.

Thanks for reading.

Not really. Alcohol sugars and chemicals are not great.
I agree and thank you for your comment.
