  • Know your Food - Flavouring Substances
    Flavouring Substances are added to Food products either to regain the flavour it would have lost during processing e.g. juices or to add a new desired flavour e.g. in case of biscuits, vanilla flavour may be added to otherwise food product without any flavour.

    Based on the resemblance of the flavouring substance to its natural occurrence, it is classified as natural, nature identical or artificial flavouring substance. Read this blog to find more about different flavouring substances.
  • Know your Food- Sugar and its Aliases
    Some Food Products mask the amount of Added Sugar by using multiple forms of sugar and avoid displaying Sugar as one of the first ingredient. All Ingredient list are in descending order by their weight, so the position of sugar and its aliases can give an indication of the amount of 'Added Sugar'.

    Though the Nutrition Fact label on the food product gives you the Total Sugar, the regulation does not require the break up between natural and added sugar to be given. Thus, it is important to know the different sources of sugar that may be present in a food product to get an idea of added sugar. 

    At the same time it is important to understand that the body does not distinguish between natural and added sugar, so take note of the Total Sugar in the Nutritional Fact label.

  • Contains Trans Fat
    Trans Fat are type of fatty acid that are formed either naturally in meats and dairy products like milk or artificially created during the manufacturing process of processed food.
     
    The artificially formed Trans Fat increases LDL cholesterol (i.e. bad cholesterol) level and reportedly reduces HDL Cholesterol (i.e. Good one) which may lead to cardiac problem.
     
    There is a global movement to encourage Food Products to be Trans Fat free.The Indian Food law requires the company to state that product contains Trans Fat if content of Trans Fat is more than 0.2 gms per serving size.
     
    Keep trans fat consumption as low as possible by avoiding foods that states Contain Trans fats on their packages 
  • Highly Processed!
    Additives are added to the packaged foods for different reasons varying from increasing shelf life, to provide flavour and texture, increasing nutrition quality or required to manufacture some types of food. 

    One of the ways to determine the degree of Processing is the number of additives you find in the ingredient list. The higher the number of additives greater is the degree of processing. Additives can be identified by looking for ingredients that begin with 'E' and have a number in them. 

    It is generally recommended that food that is closer to nature is better hence it is better to choose food products with lesser number of additives.
