Hope you enjoyed
last weeks article on the benefits
of Soya let me know how you get
on through my email.
This week I
have an article which I think you
will find interesting and maybe
just a little eye opening in your
quest to achieve the body you are
looking for.
I have Entitled
it " Fat Free Don't Always
Believe What You Read "
In you efforts
to reduce your weight and improve
your body you will have doubtless
been looking round the supermarkets
checking the labels to ensure you
have gotthe low fat options.
But I am afraid
I am about to blow your mind with
this information which might make
you think again when shopping for
food.
You may read
on the product label an item is
light or reduced in fat or even
99% Fat Free but what does that
really mean?
There talking
about 97% Fat Free by weight not
by calories they are very significantly
different.
For example
if you drink 2% milk you probably
think your really avoiding fat but
here's the rub ..
It's only 2%
fat by weight but is a whopping
38% Fat weight does not matter it's
the calories that count.
Shocked !!!
I bet you are I was when I first
found out all this is just a marketing
ploy by big business to charge you
more for food on the understanding
it is good for you.
If that shocked
you then this will blow your mind
a typical light or low fat mayonaise
will be 75% fat based on the calories.
The real story
is don't believe the labels without
further investigation take a calculator
to your store cupboard and fridge
and on your next shopping trip and
you will have the full and more
importantly the real
story .
Until next week
I look forward to bringing you more
gems and hope you enjoy the rest
of this issue.
Cheers for now
Graham Foster
