Can some foods really be considered 'bad'? In this episode, Professor Clare Collins and Ilyse Jones discuss the concept of 'bad foods' versus 'good foods'. They discuss why it's important (but hard) to make informed choices about healthy foods and how marketing influences and can distort our perceptions about eating habits. We cover practical tips for reducing processed food intakes and increasing unprocessed foods, including our resources on our No Money No Time website.
