Product Information

Foods high in saturated fat are easy to spot as they usually remain solid at room temperature, for example coconut oil, lard, butter, cheese, fatty cuts of meat as well as cream, cakes and pastries. Too much saturated fat increases our cholesterol which can increase the risk of developing coronary heart disease. Most of us eat too much saturated fat so try to include no more than 20g a day.

Enjoy foods typically high in added sugars as a treat and in small amounts e.g. sweets, cakes, biscuits and chocolate. Unfortunately, most of us only include around half of the recommended fibre in our diets. We should be aiming for around 30g a day so we’ve put together some handy tips to easily add more:Choose Eat Well options from the grocery and bakery aisle – these will provide a source of wholegrain. Animal protein sources are often the richest, however good plant protein sources include soya, tofu, pulses and nuts. Remember to include a variety of different protein sources. Yes, whether they are fresh, frozen, tinned, dried or pureed. Here are some top tips for getting your five a day: For a vegan take on nachos, lay our new blue corn tortillas on a baking tray and top with salsa, our new Plant Kitchen Greek-style cubes in brine, and some chopped Plant Kitchen no-chorizo puppies. Bake until the Greek-style cubes are melted and the no-chorizo puppies are slightly crispy. Pop in a bowl and top with chopped spring onions, jalapeños and coriander. Serve alongside homemade guacamole that's made by combining smashed avocado with lime juice, olive oil, chopped cherry tomatoes, red onion and coriander. Oily fish is a rich source of heart-healthy long-chain omega 3 fats, which are needed for brain and visual development. Research has shown diets rich in fish and omega 3 help lower the risk of heart disease.

Insoluble fibre – this can’t be broken down by our digestive system so helps to add bulk and keep the digestive system healthy. It’s commonly found in wholegrains, brown or wild rice and brown pasta.

Starchy foods, particularly wholegrain versions, are great sources of fibre, which is important for a healthy digestive system. There are two types of fibre:

The famous five should naturally make up around one third of your daily diet, ideally in three portions of vegetables and two of fruit – veg tends to be more nutrient-dense and lower in sugar than fruit, although both are rich in a variety of vitamins, minerals, fibre and plant nutrients (also known as phytonutrients). Plant sources of omega 3, such as linseeds, chia seeds and plant oils, provide short-chain omega 3, which do not have the same health benefits of those found in oily fish. Instead our bodies have to convert these omega 3s into the long-chain versions and our bodies are pretty inefficient at doing so. Fruit and vegetable juices and smoothies count as a maximum of one portion a day (one portion = 150ml), no matter how much you drink, as they are naturally lower in fibre and higher in sugar and acid. Fish is a great source of lean protein and heart-healthy omega 3 fats, which are key to growth and development. It’s also low in saturated fat yet rich in a range of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin A, D, B, selenium and calcium. Sugars can be added to foods, commonly in the form of cane sugar, honey, syrups and nectars, and are naturally present in some foods such as milk, milk products, fruits and vegetables. Both naturally present and added sugars are processed in the same way by our bodies and provide the same number of calories per gram.

Sometimes called good fats as diets high in these have been found to be beneficial to health, foods high in unsaturated fats include olive/rapeseed/sunflower oil, nuts, seeds, avocados, fish and oily fish.
