Eat Well For Less Nutritionist on coffee drink sachets, meal planning & more

Written By Sophie Cartwright

Amanda Brien "Eat Well For Less" TV show Nutritionist takes us through the nutrition highlights of the latest season!

We cover: 

  • Coffee drink sachets what is actually in them? Are 98% sugar free ones better? 

  • How to create an after school/work snack

  • Where people go wrong with meal planning

  • One legume dish that every Kiwi & Aussie should know about 

  • Amanda's take on food prices in NZ 

One-liners you don’t want to miss:

“If people are having these coffee drink sachets multiple times per day that sugar can really add up and what we’ve heard is people are actually adding additional sugar to their drinks.”

“Build snacks based on the food groups. So starting with a carbohydrate, preferably one that is wholegrain based and then load it up with a spread, perhaps avocado…”

“Reframe meal planning. It can feel like another chore you have to do but when you are in the habit of planning your meals I find it really stressful on the nights where I don’t have anything planned.”

We hope you enjoyed this conversation - for more podcast action, follow us on Instagram @up_statuss.
