Paying attention to labels

We all want to trust that the food being manufactured for us by our country is healthy. Unfortunately, when it comes to our food we need to be skeptical of many different factors. When purchasing anything in a package read the labels before deciding to buy it or not. Remember you are what you eat, and nobody wants to be a multi-colored chemical! As a rule of thumb you don't want to eat anything that has more than 3 ingredients listed and you especially don't want to consume the product if there are words you can't pronounce. Steer clear of low-fat items and pay close attention when the front of the box makes health claims. If a food is really healthy they don't need to convince you. We all want to feel our best and this can be achieved by choosing whole, unprocessed foods.
