In the food world, we’re often told that the ‘fat-free’ options are healthier for us. And while there’s no doubt about the fact that fat-free salad dressings have less fat in them, that doesn’t mean that they’re necessarily healthy. That’s because food manufacturers simply substitute the fat for something else, such as sugar or salt. Not only that, but research has actually found that full-fat dressings contain healthy fats to help the body to function normally.
So, next time you decide to add some dressing to your salad, don’t worry about choosing the fat-free option. In this instance, the full-fat option is a healthier food for diabetics.
