Description
Nutrition Nugget! Bite-size, bonus episodes offering tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn's talking about Popsicles. Popsicles are a popular choice when it comes to having a cold, sweet treat or a substitute for ice cream, but did you know that popsicles qualify as an ultra-processed food? Popsicles contain high sugar content and additives such as gums and thickeners that, studies show, can cause gastrointestinal upset. The dyes used to color popsicles have also been linked to hyperactivity in children. Jenn shares which ingredients to avoid when choosing popsicles and how reading the nutrition labels can actually help you choose the best option available to you. She also shares how you can make your own popsicles with a couple of fresh ingredients! Tune in today to learn if popsicles are really a healthier option compared to ice cream.
