Are fat free foods safe for your health?

Unfortunately no.

Here’s why…

Low fat and fat free foods contain extra fillers such as extra salt and sugar, odd bulking agents, flavor enhancers and even artificial flavoring.

Can fat free foods help you with your weight loss goals?

Statistically speaking, when you eat fat free foods, you will end up eating 28% more calories than regular full fat foods!

This is because the artificial ingredients added actually make you more hungry.

You might as well have eaten the full-fat version because not only is it healthier, ingredients wise, but it'll keep you fuller longer.

Many fat-free foods are high in refined carbohydrates aimed at making the foods more palatable.

Our fat cells are then triggered to hoard calories and our metabolism begins slowing down. The worst part is our insulin levels rise and we are left hungry and unsatisfied.

Going the easy route with low fat or fat free foods, letting companies do the “extra legwork” for you, is just a bad idea.

Successful weight loss begins with making wise health choices and sticking to portion control. Y

You'll start seeing successful weight-loss results when you get rid of the 'all or nothing' mentality and start enjoying real, whole foods in moderation with all foods that you love.
