Have you read around ultra processed foods? Avoiding those seem to have a lot of benefits. Just finished reading ‘ultra processed people’. The similarities to fake food and fake money were not lost (although the book only tackles the food side).

Yes we have reduced lots of these. We cook from scratch at home and buy good ingredients. Though they seem to always acquire sweets, crisps etc out and about with friends etc. so it’s probably 70% good and then 30% all over the shop.

Makes sense. A whole other level to start trying to control what the kids do when with their friends at birthdays etc. We are trying to encourage them to make good choices and educating them about what goes into these products. Water over juice product is the easiest and subtlest choice one can make at a kids party.
