A few little secrets you may or may not know when it comes to reading labels:
• Read the Ingredients before you buy! Don’t buy it if it has something harmful.
• The first ingredient means it’s the largest ingredient in the product
• “Partially Hydrogenated” means it’s a trans fat
• “Genetically Modified” or just “Modified” means it’s unnatural and unsafe
• “Natural Flavor” is not necessarily natural, and can include MSG!
• “No Trans Fat *per serving” means there IS trans fat! Check the ingredients and you’ll find it. (it’s a small amount per serving but nonetheless it’s still there!)
• Added vitamins and minerals don’t necessarily make it healthier – it’s mostly a marketing scheme to make you feel like you’re making a healthy choice when the product itself doesn’t have much value to your health
