- Compliments of Vitamins & MineralsThe micronutrients (Vitamins/Minerals) play an important role by ensuring proper functioning of cells and tissues.Each vitamin and trace mineral play a specific role in the body. 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.

- 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.
