Read Nutrition Labels So That You Stay On Your Diet
Over the last few days there has been many news articles talking about high fructose corn syrup making the world a bit fatter every year.
If you have been purchasing products that are labeled “diet”, “low calorie” or “low fat” you have probably assumed that your product doesn’t contain high fructose corn syrup. Well you had better check again!
Yesterday I decided to take a long and good look in the grocery store, reading as many labels as I could without getting totally pissed off. What I found was that a very high percentage of products that are labeled as diet, low calorie and low fat have high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient!!
I did find however, that there were similar products that didn’t contain this ingredient.
Since there is so much research that shows that this ingredient is so bad for our bodies it’s worth the time reading each product label before you purchase it.
Don’t just assume because it’s a diet product, your safe–take the time to read. If you have been dieting but have not been able to shake that extra weight-it just might be that you have been eating products with high fructose corn syrup.
