The Many Benefits Of Removing Sugar From Your Diet

By Johanna Leave a Comment

Every day, there are new guidelines about what you should and should not eat! Unfortunately, often you’re presented with contradictory information and advise.

Just think back a few years ago.

Back then, the debate was about how much fat should be in our diet. At first, we were told to eat as little fat as possible; low fat was the thing.

But now, we’re told we need some fat in our diet. The message is that fat in the diet is not always bad, depending on what type of fat it is.

You know when you look up in a grocery store, they will have signs that direct you to where the coffee, flour and cereal are, right?

Well, in a store about an hour from me, I found the most amazing signs….”Nutritional Food”, “Natural Cereal” and “Nutritional Drink”.  This is a chain supermarket (and I’ll leave them un-named).

Truly… it’s time for the consumer to beware. If you are looking for foods that are nutritional, make sure you are in the correct aisles.

Seriously though, learn to read the labels and check them for any products you buy. [Read more…] about Nutritional Food
