Episode Description from the Publisher

Can some foods really be considered 'bad'? In this episode, Professor Clare Collins and Ilyse Jones discuss the concept of 'bad foods' versus 'good foods'. They discuss why it's important (but hard) to make informed choices about healthy foods and how marketing influences and can distort our perceptions about eating habits. We cover practical tips for reducing processed food intakes and increasing unprocessed foods, including our resources on our No Money No Time website.Key topicsThe myth of 'bad foods' and reality of energy-dense, nutrient-poor onesInfluence of marketing and advertising on food choicesRole of food labels, health stars, and additives in making healthier decisionsUsing apps and tools to navigate food labels and additivesImportance of variety in vegetables and fruits for long-term healthResourcesNo Money No Time website https://nomoneynotime.com.au/No Money No Time Recipes - https://nomoneynotime.com/recipesYuka App - https://www.yuka.io/To access the Healthy Eating Quiz: Click on the top right hand 'green button' called 'How healthy is my diet' https://nomoneynotime.com.au/Want a more Personalised Food, Nutrient Assessment Report?
