LOW - FAT  GUIDELINES

 

  • choose a low-fat spread rather than butter or margarine

  • use less spread on sandwiches by covering only one slice

  • use skimmed milk as much as possible and limit use of whole milk

  • for cooking try using low-fat yogurt instead of cream

  • try cottage cheese or half-fat cheese rather than ordinary hard cheese

  • rather than cream cheese try curd cheese

  • cut out crisps, chocolate, cakes, pakora, samosa, sweet pastries and biscuits as much as possible

  • eat fish more often (not from the chip shop) but fresh fish grilled or steamed as its much lower in fat

  • buy lean cuts of meats and trim off any excess fat.

  • fresh chicken and turkey are low in fat but remember to remove the skin before cooking

  • use smaller portions of meat and increase portions of vegetables

  • consume more high - fibre foods such as fruits, vegetables and wholegrain breads, cereals and pasta

  • nuts and seeds are very good for nutrition but most contain high fat and calories so limit these

  • some ready - made meals can be high in fat so limit these, if you must select these try to get them with less than 5 grams of fat per100 grams

  • always read labels to identify which foods should be limited or avoided

  • use our low fat recipe page for ideas on low fat cooking
