Fat
Labels shows the total amount of fat contained in the product and below this, the amount of saturated fat. Fat has more than twice as many calories, by weight, as carbohydrate and protein – eating too much of it can easily lead to weight gain. We all need some fat in the diet to maintain health but we should aim to cut down on saturated fat. A high proportion of saturated fat in the diet can raise blood cholesterol, which in turn increases the risk of heart disease.
