We all tend to eat more bad fats than we should. These little troublemakers raise cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease. Many fatty foods are also full of saturates which raise your blood cholesterol and can increase the risk of heart disease.
Where you can, choose low and reduced-fat alternatives to your favourite foods – and always go for low or reduced fat dairy products too.
To look after your health, the way you cook your food is important too. A simple technique is to avoid frying. We suggest you try a spot of grilling, poaching, boiling or steaming instead.
