Read Labels Carefully Read Labels Carefully
 		Save Tip

Don't be fooled by advertising, claiming high in whole grains or FAT FREE. Get into a good habit of reading labels on the foods you are ready to buy. While they may have messages such as Low Fat or Reduced Calorie written all over them, when you read the ingredient statement and label more closely, you may be Un-pleasantly surprised. Look for hidden sugars, preservatives, and saturated "bad" fats.

runningbear “ Great tip! I was stunned to find out the "light" yogurt I buy most often may be nonfat, but the main ingredient is high fructose corn syrup - SO NOT HEALTHY!! ”
