Food Labels

Are you really reading those labels on the food you are buying or 'kind of'? Many people are making the mistake of glancing at the calories and carbohydrates at the very top and then stop there.

There is a lot more you need to look for than you think!

FDA regulations require nutrition information to appear on packaging for most prepared foods, such as breads, cereals, canned and frozen foods, snacks, desserts, and drinks. Nutrition labeling for raw produce (fruits and vegetables) and fish is voluntary. Full information about what you are about to eat should be on the label and you should read it!

So how well do you know your food labels?
