Keeping away from low fat

October 28th, 2009

Nowadays, supermarkets are aware that to sell products they need to put signs on products that people don’t want to buy because they are fattening saying “low fat” or “lower fat” but what does that actually mean.  ”Lower fat” can mean it is just slightly lower fat than previously but on a product like butter or ice cream this can mean it is still very high in fat even when it is lower fat.  ”Low fat” can mean it is low fat for this kind of product but can still be high fat.  You need to look at the actual fat per gram and what type of fat saturated or unsaturated.  Remember these signs are put on there to make you buy the products don’t get confused thinking this is a good reason to purchase it, if you bought all low fat products you can still put on a lot of weight.  Chocolate is always fatty even when it says low fat, so are cakes and butter.
