Reading the Nutritional Panel or Nutritional Information

This week kicks off the first in a series of educational videos designed to help make your food choices easier.

In this first video, I’ve gone back to the beginning to take a closer look at that little panel of numbers that you find on the back of every food product you buy — the Nutritional Panel or Nutritional Information.

Let’s look at some nutritional panels found on food I talk about: •What info is there •How to read them •Tricks the industries use •Sugar content and why it’s not as scary as you think

Some of the things I cover in this video:

• The values you find on a nutritional panel
• Marketing tricks you need to watch out for
• Assessing the carbohydrate and sugar content
• What I actually read on the back of the packaging
• And a couple of fun food comparisons

Hope you enjoy the video. I’d love to hear how you go when reading food labels or any tips and tricks you have!
