 A misunderstood ingredient?
The food writer and chef Jennifer McLagan is on a mission to dispel the myth that fat is a 'greasy killer'. In her new book, 'Fat: An Appreciation of a Misunderstood Ingredient',听she explains the health benefits of eating animal fats compared to vegetable and manufactured fats that we often choose today, whether it鈥檚 appreciating a good butter, or cooking with that almost taboo substance - lard. She argues that for all of history up until the last thirty years, fat has been at the centre of human diets and cultures but now we fear it. She joins Jane along with Dr Helen Crawley, a registered public health nutritionist and Director of the Caroline Walker Trust, to discuss what is a healthy amount of animal fat in our diet.
