Lethal Foods For Your Diet
Every wondered what makes junk food so lethal? “Junk food is usually a combo of sugar, fat and salt,” says dietician Charlene Giovanelli-Nicolson, "and is associated with overindulgence as it doesn't satisfy satiety". Here's how to to keep these bad guys in check...
“Fat contributes more than twice as many kilojoules per gram as either protein or carbohydrates. Due to the energy boost it offers, most of us crave fat – especially if we’re feeling flat,” says Giovanelli-Nicolson.
Don't Go With Your Gut: “Choose tomato-based sauces when dining out, mix mayo with plain yoghurt and try to use healthier fats such as avocado, cottage cheese and olives in your meals,” says nutritional therapist Lesley Scott.

Is using honey instead of sugar in breakfast foods and in tea healthier? For that is what I'm doing and I believe I'm much more healthier for doing so.
