Action on Salt is calling for a restriction on the use of misleading nutrition claims on snacks, as new research reveals some “seemingly healthy” snacks could be “sabotaging” our health.
Researchers at Queen Mary University of London analysed 119 snacks, including dried/roasted pulses and processed pulse snacks (lentil curls, chickpea chips and puffs), which are often perceived as healthy alternatives to the usual snacking options. They found that despite these products being (on average) lower in fat, saturated fat and calories, and higher in fibre, 43% are also high in salt.
