"  According to Change4Life&amp;#039;s smart food IQ test focusing on levels of sugar, salt and saturated fat in foods, over three quarters of 2000 people surveyed scored under 50%. Eek! FOOD SWAP OPTIONS FOR A HEALTHY DIET What&amp;#039;s got more salt in it - a pre-packed ham and cheese sandwich, a Chicken Tikka Masala ready meal, or a packet of ready salted crisps? Of the people surveyed, 85% of people got this answer wrong. Through this IQ test we realise more surprising facts about fat-free yoghurt, pepperoni pizza and black coffee that really opened our minds about our health. Apparently 60% of people didn&amp;#039;t know that the daily maximum amount of salt recommended is only one teaspoon. It&amp;#039;s actually quite shocking to learn the truth about our everyday food. HOW TO SET AMAZING GOALS IN 2013 &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s really important to be aware of what hidden nasties may be in your food, and to know what you&amp;#039;re putting in your or your family&amp;#039;s bodies,&amp;quot; explains Change4Life campaign ambassador Ainsley Harriott. &amp;quot;Some of our favourite meals, takeaways and snacks contain high amounts of salt, sugar and saturated fat \u2013 it&amp;#039;s our job to make sure that we know where they are hiding!&amp;quot; Despite the low scores, most people surveyed still want to be healthier. However, it looks like we&amp;#039;re prioritising price and efficiency when shopping for food. Over half of people surveyed just chose food they knew the whole family would eat. SUPER FOODS THAT HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT FAST You can still eat well on a budget without giving up your favourite treats. Ainsley suggests preparing food at home, cut down on saturated fat, swap high sugar options for lower ones and watch out for hidden salt in foods and check the label on the food you buy.
