Beware The Fat-Free Trap





Ask Glen!






Q. Glen, Is fat free good for you?


A. While many times, low-fat or fat-free make good alternatives to the full-fat versions, sometimes these products contain as many or even more calories than the original product. Before you dive into a whole box of fat-free chocolate chip cookies, make sure you read the entire label on the box. Manufactures often replace the fat in the original version with large amounts of sugar. The same rules apply to low-carb and zero-calorie foods. Remember if it sounds too good to be true, read the label!



Glen's Bottom Line: Read the labels...Did you hear me?
