Tips To Remember
Here are some helpful hints that make selecting and enjoying healthful foods a breeze:
• Pre-sliced cheese may help you control portion sizes.
• When considering low-fat cheeses, consider the amount of total fat and saturated fat per once in the product.
• Fat-free, 1/2% fat and 1% fat milk all provide the same nutrients as whole milk and 2% fat milk. But they are much lower in fat, saturated fatty acids, cholesterol and calories.
• If you're used to whole-milk products, you may find it easier to make the change slowly to lower-fat foods. Try 1% fat milk first. Then when you're used to that, move to 1/2% fat milk. That will make it much easier if you decide to change to fat-free milk.
