Health Halo Exposed: Don’t Be Fooled by the Food Industry

from Smaller Stomach, Bigger Life · host Kyla Holley

Host Kyla Holley explains the "health halo"—how packaging highlights one positive claim (like “low-fat” or “high protein”) while hiding other ingredients and misleading shoppers. She breaks down common labels—low fat, sugar-free, organic, gluten-free, all natural, light, reduced, baked not fried, and protein—and shows why you should always check the nutrition panel. Practical tips: compare products using the per-100g column, flip packages to read the full ingredient list, and weigh the real benefits versus cost. The episode encourages informed choices, not judgment, so you know what you’re buying and putting into your body.   Kyla Holley Director of the Australian Centre for Eating Behaviour To book a Discovery Session www.acfeb.com Join our comprehensive 6 week Change your Relationship with Food online course Join me here Need the Change your Relationship with Food Journal and Workbook by Kyla Holley?
