NEWS: Review of added sugar labelling
Welcome
Welcome to Issue 55 of Sweet Bites.
In this issue our feature article is about carbohydrate quality. What is it, why is it important and what foods are considered quality carbohydrates?
Our news items are a New Zealand analysis of dietary patterns that meet WHO sugar guidelines and the FSANZ review on sugars labelling.
From the journals we’ve gathered ten papers on sugars, carbohydrates and health including a New Zealand systematic review and meta-analyses on dietary fibre and diabetes management, an Australian study examining associations between free sugars intake, obesity and blood pressure, and a sensory study showing things taste sweeter when consumed after drinking coffee.
We hope you enjoy this issue and invite you to be in touch if you have any feedback, or suggestions for future articles.
