I've started the Sane Label Substack https://t.co/08GNDbC3hg. I'll decode labels on everyday UK foods, as well as unpack nutrition trends & supermarket finds. I'm not about “clean eating” —just making sense of the hype and confusion about what's in our food. Please subscribe

The Fiber Debate: Could Skipping It Be a Health Hack?

Is fiber the guts guardian angel or an over-hyped plant pulp we can happily skip? While carnivore enthusiasts swear their bellies have never been calmer since abandoning fruits, veggies, and grains, #fibermaxxing devotees are tossing chia seeds on everything. Before you trade your oatmeal for rib-eye (or vice-versa), where do the facts really fall on this crunchy controversy? @DietWrite https://t.co/qFh04OVKsE

14 of Alpro’s Plant Milks Decoded: What's in Your Glass? https://t.co/x7WOdSsKl7

From protein to fibre to fortification: some non dairy milks match cow’s milk in nutrients, others not so much. Soya shines, coconut is mostly for froth, and almond milks are variable! #alpro #soya #oat #coconut #nondairy #vegan #plant
