Behind the Food Label Curtain
Food labels are intended to help you understand what you're eating, but in reality, they're deceptively difficult to use and understand. Here are some tips to help you choose healthy products more reliably.
1

Ignore claims on the rest of the packaging

Claims

Many claims that appear on the front of product packaging, like "whole grain" or "high-protein," don't quite hold up when you get to the ingredient list. Don't take the packaging at face value. Instead, check the ingredient list yourself.

2

Look at serving sizes first

Nutrition Facts

It's easy to scan the nutrition facts and decide your product is healthy enough, only to find that a serving is 1/10 of what you expected. Check serving sizes first to set expectations.

3

Prioritize the first five ingredients

Ingredients
Ingredient labels are listed in order of quantity, so the first several ingredients pack the most punch in each product. Watch out for processed sugars (like high fructose corn syrup), artificial colors, natural flavors, and any other ingredients you're hoping to avoid.
