Recap: Why you should be wary of ‘low fat’ foods | Sarah Berry

from ZOE Science & Nutrition · host ZOE

If you’re a regular listener of this podcast, you’ll know that our cholesterol level is closely linked to heart health. With that in mind, it’s easy to be drawn to foods labelled as ‘low fat’, ‘reduced fat’ or ‘fat free’ - all of which promise to keep our cholesterol low and heart strong.  However, is it really that simple? I’m joined by Professor Sarah Berry to break down the difference between good and bad cholesterol, bust some myths about low-fat foods, and explain how we can make smarter food choices that support our heart. 🥑 Make smarter food choices.
