It is becoming even more important for all of us to read food labels describing what is in the food that we are buying. Non-fresh foods have an Ingredients Label and also a Nutritional Facts Label. The Ingredients Label tells what is in the product. The first ingredient listed is the primary one contained in the food. If one of the first 2-3 ingredients is high fructose corn syrup, beware, as this additive is not nutritionally necessary and is not good for your body. When reading the Nutrition Label, look for the sodium content which is salt, and sugar content as high amounts of each are not healthy additions to your diet. Try not to purchase foods with food coloring and preservatives. The less items on the ingredients label, the better.
Happy Earth Day everyone!
