Do not buy food if you find the following?

Food additives or damage to kidney health

Probably most consumers don't know how many secrets are hidden on the shopping shelves of the supermarket. Let's conduct a survey on the shelves of various supermarkets and expose the unknown secrets of the food industry! They plunder not only everyone's expectations and money, but also health.

Skimming doesn't mean being really healthy.

If you want to know the inside story of the food industry, go to the candy section of the supermarket. There, you will definitely see the word "degreasing", which is also used as a marketing strategy by supermarkets. But these calorie-free junk foods are almost all made of sugar and processed carbohydrates.

For example, manufacturers hope that when customers see "skim" candy, they will regard it as "healthy" and "non-fattening" food, thus completely forgetting the sugar contained in these foods. This is a distraction strategy: the advertisements of food companies only show what they want you to notice, and the candy section in the supermarket is just the beginning.

Numbers can be deceiving.

On a bottle of low-sugar jasmine tea, you will see the words "sugar content is less than 4%" in the content table of the package. On the package of jasmine honey tea, it is only indicated that it contains white sugar, but not how much, which will not bring much benefit to your health. Especially diabetics.

The so-called semi-fat cheese does not exist.

So what kind of food is the so-called semi-fat cheese? When you understand, you will be greatly disappointed with the money you paid: every 100 gram of plain cheese slices contains 26 grams of fat and 1300 kilojoule energy, while semi-fat cheese slices contain 12 grams of fat and 1049 kilojoule energy. Why not label the calorie content on the nutrition table? In fact, the calorie content of full-fat and semi-fat cheese will not be much different. So, how many grams of calories do you have to digest?

"Heart-healthy" grains contain a lot of sugar.

Even if the sugar content of the product seriously exceeds the standard, it can still be qualified. The food industry won't let you know that food companies have to pay for their products to be approved by AHA.

Trans fatty acid foods hidden on the shelves

The aisles of supermarkets are full of trans fatty acids that are harmful to health. The worst snack is bagged popcorn, each serving contains 6 grams of trans fatty acids, and one bag is actually eaten by three people, so eating it is equivalent to taking 18 grams of trans fatty acids, and the human body can bear up to 2 grams of trans fatty acids every day. Before buying spherical puffed food, carefully study its nutrient composition table.

What exactly does the so-called "high calcium food" mean?

There is no doubt that on any food label in the supermarket, you can see the slogan: This product is a high-quality supplement containing one or more vitamins or minerals. But what you need to know is that the so-called high-quality vitamin or mineral supplements contain only 10% of the daily demand.

Take high calcium combed biscuits as an example. The label says "high calcium", and every100g of biscuits contains 300 mg of calcium. Although Taiping's biscuits are not marked with high calcium, the calcium content per 100 g reaches 320 mg.

Drinking bottled green tea is not as healthy as you think.

Polyphenols in green tea are called catechins, which are healthy antioxidants and can fight diseases. However, the green tea on the shelf has almost no catechin content.

Don't worry about diabetes unless it is labeled "sucrose-free"

Studies have found that carbohydrates contained in grains can raise blood sugar faster than sucrose. On some cereal packages, it is clearly written that "sucrose is not added", but on its nutrition table, the carbohydrate content per 100 g product is as high as 76.8 g.

Food additives can damage your kidneys.

Researchers have found that pigments and preservatives in food have a certain relationship with ADHD in children. Additives including Huang No.5, Huang No.6, Hong No.40 and sodium benzoate are common in many packaged foods. However, it is not clear wheADHDr the combination of these chemicals is single or not. Rainbow sugar contains yellow 5, yellow 6 and red 40 pigments, while some soft drinks contain sodium benzoate.
