The Food Awareness Revolution!

I don’t know what to believe anymore. There are many claims made every day about the benefits of this and that. Very good marketing has made the grocery store more like a pharmacy.

Things like high potency, antioxidants, low sodium, boost immunity, regulate digestion… the list is long. I have been trying to buy smart and eat smart. I have my days of confusion. Science along with marketing claims will always be players in the eating healthy race. That’s cool with me. The part that proves the claims is science. I have turned to reading the nutritional fact label supported by understanding what things like reduced, low and no mean.

There is a method to the madness. Take a look at the FDA food and nutrition website. It was helpful.

What does all this give me? It gives me a better understanding.  Then based on several opinions, I make up my own mind and try to live healthier.
