How to eat less fatty and sugary foods

  • Use less spreading fat (including butter and margarine)
  • Use a low fat spread instead of a full fat one or butter, but still use it sparingly
  • If you're using a moist sandwich filling, don't use spreading fats
  • Use a minimum of fat or oil in cooking
  • Drain off excess fat or oil after cooking
  • Eat baked potatoes without any butter or margarine
  • Eat cooked vegetables without added butter or margarine
  • Try not to add fat to chapattis either before or after cooking
  • Choose healthier snacks (link to healthy snacks)
