Facts
Some food labels use a traffic-light system which makes it easier to choose food that is lower in fat, sugar and salt. Choose more ’greens’ and ’ambers’ and fewer ’reds’.
Look at your food labels when you are preparing your food
Fat, sugar, salt - high or low?
• High fat is more than 20g per 100g
• Low fat is 3g or less per 100g
• High sugar is more than 15g per 100g
• Low sugar is 5g or less per 100g
• High salt is more than 1.5g per 100g

Swap big plates for smaller plates and you’ll have a smaller portion (it’ll look like you have more food too (yum yum).
Modern life can be pretty comfy – sofas, TVs, computer games – there’s just so much to keep us all sat down. But bodies weren’t designed to sit down all the time – they need to walk, jump, run and MOVE to be healthy, grow properly and use up the right amount of energy.
A good dose of fresh air and exercise also helps us all sleep better.
