Whenever you buy a drink or a pack of chips, you throw away the packet right after eating
through it, right? But have you ever stopped to read the label containing the ingredients and
nutritional data? Let’s look at why that matters.
Food labels
Food labels provide important information in a concise manner about a product’s
ingredients, nutritional content, and sometimes even the origin of the food. Despite this,
many of us overlook these details, dismissing it as jargon by paranoid eaters and overlook
health. By understanding and paying attention to these labels, we can make more informed
choices about what we consume.
At Amritatva, we provide clear and transparent nutritional information on all our food
packs, so you know exactly what you’re consuming. The fact that we do not use any
unhealthy compounds like the ones mentioned in this blog makes our products natural and
more trustworthy, especially when it comes to your health. By choosing Amritatva, you are
making a conscious decision to nourish your body with food that respects both nature and
your health. This approach not only helps us build a healthy relationship with our customers
but also ensures that we are not feeding them harmful substances, aligning with our core
values of honesty and transparency.
Understanding the Nutrition Facts Label
When looking at the Nutrition Facts label, first check the number of servings in the package
(servings per container) and the serving size. Serving sizes are standardized in familiar
units, such as cups or pieces, followed by grams (g). This helps you compare similar foods
more easily. However, it is important to know that they are not a recommendation of how
much should you consume!
- Calories indicate how much energy you get from a serving of this food. Keeping track of
calorie intake is essential for managing weight and overall health. - Saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars are nutrients that can have adverse health
effects. Excessive saturated fat and sodium increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and
high blood pressure, while too much added sugar can lead to nutrient deficiencies and
weight gain. - Total Sugars include sugars naturally present in foods and any added sugars. Added
Sugars include sugars added during food processing, such as sucrose, dextrose, syrups, and
honey.
From these, it’s quite clear that saturated fats, sodium and added sugars are some stuff that
you don’t want an excess of and that’s why they’re commonly known as stuff that you need
to take less of when consuming packaged products!
In conclusion, reading food labels not only helps you make smarter, healthier choices, but it also saves time in the long run by allowing you to quickly assess the quality of the products you buy. At Amritatva, we offer value-added products that are not only transparent but also sustainable, preservative-free, and packed with natural ingredients. By choosing Amritatva, you’re opting for food that aligns with your health goals and respects the planet, ensuring that every bite nourishes both you and the environment.
