We've all seen the claims made on food packaging such low fat, low sodium, calorie free, 0 trans fat, and fat free. But how much of this is actual truth and how much is fluff. To answer this question we got to delve deeper and decipher the information on the food labels themselves. The fact is that the FDA does not require food manufacturers to provide scientific evidence of the claims they make on food labels. For this reason it's up to us as consumer to read these claims and understand what they mean. |
