Cholesterol, insufficient fibre and outside caterers perth excess calorie intake are sometimes termed ‘the diseases of the modern Western diet’, yet the reasons for the description are frequently misunderstood. The fibrous part of outside caterers perth plant foods, called cellulose, is a starch carbohydrate. It was once thought to be useless to the body because it cannot be digested but it is now accepted that this dietary fibre provides the roughage which is essential to the healthy outside caterers perth working of the digestive system. Fibre carries plenty of moisture and cleans the intestine and bowels, thus helping to eliminate waste products of the foods we eat. Many of today’s outside caterers perth foods are preserved or processed in such a way that the fibre originally present is lost.

Vegetable oils, particularly soy bean, sunflower and cotton seed oil, and vegetable margarine, contain a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. By outside caterers perth using these vegetable fats in preference to animal fats it is possible to lower the blood cholesterol level considerably, which is highly beneficial for health.

Dairy produce and eggs should be restricted, and chicken, veal and fish eaten instead of pork, lamb and beef. Vegetable oils may be used for outside caterers perth cooking and vegetable margarine may be used for baking and spreading.
