From Susie and Leanne on The Nutrition Couch this episode:
We discuss Sugar: whether it be honey, golden syrup, glucose, rice malt or treacle. Is it really bad for us, are some types better than others and how much is too much each day?
Our 'Client Case Study' is on bariatric surgery: we talk the dietary impact and nutritional implications to be aware of if you have had or are considering bariatric surgery;
Our 'Product Review of the Week' is on a new veggie rice we can’t get enough of;
And finally, our 'Listener Question of the Week' is all about protein balls: are they healthy, can we eat them daily and how do you choose a good one?  




So sit back, relax and enjoy this week’s episode!
