Dr. Chris Van Tulleken's Tips for Healthier Eating: Simple Food Swaps and Teaching Kids
Dr. Chris Van Tulleken, a specialist in the effects of ultra-processed foods (UPFs), offers simple dietary swaps to improve health, as highlighted in the BBC documentary 'Irresistible – Why We Can't Stop Eating.' He suggests replacing UPFs with healthier alternatives like raw nuts instead of crisps, homemade stir-fry sauces, traditional coffee or tea over energy drinks, and natural yogurt with fruit instead of ice cream. He also recommends homemade pasta sauces and fries to avoid additives found in store-bought versions.
