About this Event

This informative talk will guide you through the essential skills needed to decode food labels and make healthier choices with confidence.

We’ll be exploring the ingredients list, teaching you how to identify, hidden sugars and ultra-processed ingredients that can impact your health. You’ll learn how ingredients are listed by weight and why understanding this order is crucial for assessing product quality.

Understanding the nutrition table—explaining calories, macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, proteins), sugars, fiber, salt, and more. You’ll gain practical knowledge on interpreting portion sizes and how to compare products effectively based on their nutritional content.

We’ll also discuss front-of-pack labels, like the UK traffic light system, and reveal how marketing claims such as “low fat,” “natural,” or “sugar-free” can sometimes be misleading. This talk will empower you to see past these claims and make informed decisions that support your health goals.

If your'e aiming to lose weight, reduce your risk of diabetes or simply want to eat cleaner, this session will give you the tools to confidently choose foods that truly benefit your wellbeing.
