Mandy Sacher - Food Labelling

Описание: On this edition we’re joined by paediatric nutritionist Mandy Sacher, one of Australia’s leading experts in children’s nutrition and healthy eating. Mandy is the founder of Wholesome Child, an organisation dedicated to improving family nutrition through education, practical tools, and evidence-based guidance. She’s also a bestselling author and a passionate advocate for making healthy eating accessible and achievable for every household.


Recently, a new study has revealed that food labelling is major blind spot in Australian parenting. Many parents believe they’re making healthy choices for their children, but packaging claims and confusing ingredient lists often tell a different story. Mandy has long argued that our current labelling system can be misleading, masking high sugar, sodium, and additive levels behind “natural” or “wholesome” marketing.


She’ll help us unpack what’s really in the foods we buy for our kids, how to read labels more critically, and what changes are needed to make food information clearer and more honest. Whether you’re a parent, carer, or simply someone who wants to understand what’s on your plate, Mandy’s insights will shed light on the hidden pitfalls of packaged foods, and how we can empower families to make healthier, more informed choices.
