Reducing Fat in Food Formulations

Your weekly reduction!

Taste Possibly Related to Obesity
Scientists believe they may have discovered what causes some people to overeat -- taste.

Health Trends Among Young Children
New research shows cheese, hotdogs, whole and 2% milk are among the top foods and beverages contributing to saturated fat and sodium intakes of toddlers and preschoolers.

Cutting the Fat
Researchers say low-fat, creamy desserts and sauces could be made as tasty and visually appealing as their full-fat counterparts simply by adjusting the calcium and acidity levels.

Saturated Fat and Heart Health
A report finds that reducing saturated fat intake does not result in improved heart health.

Yogurt and Diabetes
Eating yogurt may significantly reduce chances of getting adult-onset diabetes.
