Would you consider foods that have partially hydrogenated soybean oil and high fructose corn syrup bad? Or things that can hurt your heart?

Dear Marie:

Those foods are thought to be especially unhealthy, and the healthiest approach is to eat mostly whole foods - lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, etc.), but no foods should be off-limits, which often makes people want them more. Allow your child to have reasonable servings of less healthy foods while making sure her diet is overall healthy. But, you may decide to seek alternatives to foods containing the ingredients you mentioned.
