For example, Vitamin C acts as antioxidant protecting cells from environmental damage, healing wounds and maintaining connective tissue whereas minerals like sodium, potassium and chloride function as electrolytes that assist in communication between cells necessary for nerve impulses and muscle contraction.Some products mimic the nature by adding artificial vitamins or minerals which have an identical form and function to those found in nature, but they are manufactured synthetically to meet extremely high standards of processed products.

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.

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.
