Food labels can help you make better choices, but we understand that for many people, affordable food options can be a challenge. Even if you don't always have the luxury to pick and choose, knowing how to read food labels can help you when you do.
Check the Nutrition Facts Table and Ingredient List to see if a product has a lot of added sugars, sodium, or unhealthy fats (saturated fat). Use the % Daily Value (DV) to understand how much of a nutrient is in a serving:
5% DV or less = A little
15% DV or more = A lot!
Make sure to check the label before you buy – your health deserves it!
