    Hi, I'm a new member and am wondering if How much sugar has a chart saying roughly which ready meals are OK and which to avoid? Thanks Elaine, Anglesey UK

    Hi Elaine,

    1. Have you subscribed as a member? If so you can see the "Sugar Guides" which, in relation to frozen meals,  only report on ten "Light-&-Easy" meals. They are generally less than 2% sugar.
    2. If you have the time you can search the NUTTAB database:  http://davidgillespie.org/product_list/ 
    3. Or you apply the general rule that products with no more than 2% "sugars" in the Nutrition Information  Panel are probably OK. 
    4. It also pays to look for the percentage of polyunsaturated Fats (oils) and to avoid those with more than 2%. These are unhealthy as David explains in his book "Toxic Oil". Don't worry about saturated fats as your body will only take in what you need once your appetite-control system is working again.
    5. if you don't already know about it www.sweetpoison.com.au contains a great deal of useful information.
