In this episode, I’m joined
by Professor Clare Collins, Australian dietitian and Professor
of Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Newcastle. Clare is
my go-to expert when it comes to all things nutrition, and today
she’s here to unpack the often confusing world of processed
and ultra-processed foods.
We dive into what really
separates the two, explore the role of additives, emulsifiers, and
flavour enhancers, and discuss how some of these ingredients,
designed to make foods more appealing, may be doing our health more
harm than good. Plus, she shares practical, no-nonsense tips
to help you make smarter choices next time you’re wandering the
grocery aisles.
