Reading labels is so confusing it is hard to keep up with all of the new rules and what they mean to the appearance of the label. I have compiled a few tips to assist you in deciphering labels.

1. If a label says reduced fat or sodium, that means that the fat has been reduced 25% from the original item or a similar item. It does not mean that the food is low in fat or sodium, just lower than the original

2. Remember all of the information listed on the label is based on a 200 calorie a day diet. Adjust the numbers to fit your caloric intake

Weight loss isn’t just about eating less food. Most people fail to do at the beginning is to realize that the main reason for eating is to provide your body the substance it it needs in order to stay healthy. Healthy eating is not just something that we can just put away and never pick it up again. It is one goal that we need to set for ourselves. Depending on one’s culture, we normally prepare and serve foods in order to provide comfort those who have experienced loss, in order to celebrate joy, or to show friendship and love.
