Let’s support @allergicaustralia in raising awareness for #FoodAllergy Week! The theme is ‘When eating out: Always Ask, Always Tell’. Over 1.5 million Australians have a food allergy and the risk of an allergic reaction increases significantly when eating away from home. Everyone needs to be allergy aware: when serving food we need to always ask about food allergies, and people with allergies need to always tell those preparing food about their food allergy. Not talking about food allergy increases the risk of an allergic reaction. #FoodAllergyWeek #AllergenFree #FoodAllergyAwareness #RaiseAwareness #SafeTreats #CharliesSafeTreatBox #CommunitySupport #FoodAllergyFamily #FoodAllergyAwarenessWeek #FoodAllergies #AllergyMum #EpiPen #IngredientLabels #SafeSnacks #AllergyAwareness #foodallergyawarenessmonth

With the advancement of science, while people pay attention to the quality of health, more and more nutritional supplements are coming to the market to bring good news to people. However, in the mixed health product market, How Do We Choose The One That Can Truly Help Us? What About Healthy Nutritional Supplements? How Do You Understand The Ingredients Of Nutritional Products? How To Choose Nutritional Supplements? IN FACT, THE EFFECT OF A PRODUCT MUST BE DERIVED FROM THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN THE PRODUCT, SO IT IS IMPORTANT FOR US TO LEARN TO READ THE INGREDIENT LIST BY OURSELVES! Labels can tell us the following information: Serving Size refers to the amount taken per time; Servings Per Container refers to the content per bottle; Amount Per Serving refers to the ingredients and content contained in each serving; %Daily Value or DV for short in some products refers to the percentage of daily recommended intake; Total Calories refers to the calorie content per pill; Total Fat refers to the fat content, and some health products will write Total Carbohydrate (total carbohydrate content). Depending on the product, the content will vary. The common ones are basically the Sugar content; the Vitamin content is mostly the content of trace elements and minerals. + indicates that the percentage of daily intake for this element has not yet been determined. The phrase %DVs are based on a 2000 calorie diet； Allergy Warning is an allergy warning. Suggested Use is a suggested method of use, telling you how to take it. For example, before or after a meal, for example, it cannot be eaten with some foods, etc. #nutrition #nurtritionsupplements #healthyfood #supplementfacts #ingredientlabels #knowmorehealth
⚠️Ever wondered what’s lurking in our packaged foods?⚠️ Additives classified as GUMS are added in some of our everyday brands may seem harmless because many are made from plants 🌱, but they’re anything but natural. Plant-derived ingredients undergo processing that can alter their natural state, leading to a shift towards ultra-processing. Examples commonly seen are guar gum, carrageenan, xanthan gum and more. They’re there to fake texture and prevent separation. Sometimes it can be challenging to avoid these all together, so we’ve created a scale for you based on its negative impact on your body 👆🏻Not only are these ingredients completely unnecessary, they can cause bloating, gas, diarrhea, ulcerations of the intestinal lining and other digestive issues. Ps. Attention Mama’s & Papas! Xanthan gum increased the frequency of bacterial infection and intestinal inflammation in infants after it was added to their formulas (leading the FDA to ban its inclusion in formulas thereafter). Always ALWAYS read the ingredients list in your packaged foods before consuming them! It’s time to scrutinize our choices, opting for transparency and simplicity in our food. Some common items we use everyday that contain these gums include 1. Almond Milk (Califa Farms, So Delicious, Almond Breeze & More) 2. Cottage Cheese (Many brands!) 3. Sour Cream 4. Coffee Creamer 5. Salad Dressings 6. Yogurt #Gums #GumsAdditives #Emulsifiers #GuarGum #Carrageenan #XanthanGum #ArabicGum #FoodAdditives #HealthyChoices #TransparencyInFood #NaturalVsProcessed #FoodQuality #NutritionAwareness #WholeFoods #IngredientIntegrity #HealthConscious #WellnessJourney #PlantBasedLiving #ingredientlabels #whataregums #additivestoavoid #cleanlabels #cleaneating #guthealth #leakygutcauses #gutdysbiosis #guthealth #cleanfoodguide #healthykitchen

I really enjoyed this @barre_clandestine 62% dark milk bar, with cacao from Peru’s Morropón region and caramelized milk powder. The taste for me is strawberry streusel. Buttery, sweet fruit toast. 🍓🍞 Nearly equal to my enjoyment of the bar is the maker’s ingredient % transparency 🔎 The label lists the % per 100g of cocoa beans, added cocoa butter, sugar, and milk powder. My tasting experience is more informed knowing much cocoa butter is added, and how the sugar content compares to a standard 70%. Knowing that the 62% is the combination of the cacao beans and a not-insignificant amount of added cocoa butter. Seeing that, per 100g, this bar has roughly the same amount of sugar as a 70%. I appreciate being able to think about what factors (i.e., inclusions, milk powder, roast) affect the perception of sweetness. So, @barre_clandestine I’m a big fan of this bar and your labeling ☺️🏷️ . . . . . . . . #craftchocolate #beantobar #beantobarchocolate #bean2bar #bean2barchocolate #chocolatetasting #barreclandestine #morropón #peruviancacao #peruvianchocolate #frenchchocolate #ingredientlabels #darkmilkchocolate

There's something we thought you might like to know about our ingredients... They are extraordinary. In an under-regulated market like cosmetics, it can be hard to distinguish ingredient quality from product labels alone. We wanted to shine some (sun) light on our amazing, biodynamically grown sunflower oil, and get to the root of what makes it such a terrific ingredient! ☀️ First of all, we use cold-pressed, high-oleic, certified organic sunflower oil which, unlike traditional sunflower oil, is low in omega-6 polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs). It provides a light and non-greasy feeling on the skin, is deeply moisturizing, and is naturally rich in vitamin E and antioxidants that stabilize the product and protect skin from damaging ultraviolet light. This oil is also non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores. These attributes help us craft products with short, recognizable ingredient lists, that feel amazing and nourish skin without the use of water (which typically necessitates a multitude of hard-to-pronounce preservatives for stability). 🌻 What we think is even more special about this ingredient is that it goes beyond organic. Through a grant, we were able to support the biodynamic cultivation of this year's harvest. Biodynamic farming goes beyond organic standards by taking a holistic approach to the land, increases biodiversity, and builds regenerative soil health. These factors, in turn, increase the nutrient value of the plants being grown. 🌱 If you'd like to learn more about biodynamic farming, check out our link in bio. If you'd like to learn more about our ingredients, head to the Inside Badger portion of our website and check out the Product Info pages and Ingredient Glossary.

Did you know that sugar can hide under a multitude of names on food labels, making it challenging to identify? 🧐🥄 Swipe to find out the extensive list of secret names that sugar may go by ➡️ With over 50+ names, it's no wonder sugar can be so elusive on ingredient lists. Being aware of these aliases can help you make more informed choices when shopping for food products and empower you to take control of your sugar intake. We recommend checking labels carefully and prioritising whole, unprocessed foods whenever possible for optimal health.

🥣 Navigating the yogurt aisle can feel like a maze! With endless options, how do you pick the perfect one? Here are some quick hacks to decode the confusion: ✨ Opt for Greek or Icelandic yogurt for more protein. ✨ Say no to non-fat and opt for full-fat or low-fat varieties for better hormone health. ✨ Choose yogurts with more grams of protein than grams of sugar. ✨ Stick to plain yogurt and add fresh berries for natural sweetness. ✨ Keep it simple with fewer ingredients and avoid artificial sweeteners like sucrose, corn syrup, and xylitol. #YogurtHacks #HealthyChoices #NutritionTips #DairyDelight #HealthyEating #ProteinPower #WellnessWednesday #HormoneHealth #BloodSugar #HealthyLiving #CleanEating #RealFood #FoodHacks #NutritionHacks #HealthyHabits #FoodTips #MindfulEating #HealthAndWellness #WholeFoods #IngredientLabels #HealthyLifestyle #MorningRoutine #BreakfastIdeas #HealthyOptions #GreekYogurt #IcelandicYogurt #FreshBerries #ChooseWisely #fitfood
A breaking new study published in the journal PLoS Medicine involving 92,000 adults in France found that certain emulsifiers can increase the risk of cancer up to 46%: 1. MONO & DIGLYCERIDES: People who often eat products with mono- and diglycerides had a 24% higher risk of developing breast cancer and a 46% higher risk of prostate cancer. 2. CARRAGEENAN: They found a 32% higher risk of breast cancer in women who often eat products with Carrageenan. These two ingredients are used in thousands of processed foods as emulsifiers to keep food blended together, to improve texture, and preserve them longer on the shelf. They are not necessary, but used by food manufacturers to cut costs and use less real food. How do you protect yourself? Check your products for “Carrageenan” or “Mono and Diglycerides” on the ingredient label. This is why we don’t use emulsifiers and gums in Truvani products. We believe in real food without added chemicals, products without toxins and labels without lies. Know anyone eating these products with emulsifiers? Please share!

The first ingredient we’ll cover in the ingredient series: citric acid 🍋 🍋 Citric acid occurs naturally in citrus fruits like lemons, limes, oranges, and grapefruits. However, the majority of citric acid production globally is through a manufactured, synthetic process using the fungus Aspergillus niger (also known as black mold). This manufactured citric acid (MCA) is created by fermenting carbohydrates like glucose or sucrose with the Aspergillus niger fungus. 🍋 Why is MCA used? Well there are a few reasons. First and foremost, it’s cost effective. Manufactured citric acid is much more cost-effective to produce than extracting it from natural citrus fruit sources. This allows for wider use and incorporation of citric acid in a variety of commercial products. The second reason is for preservation and shelf-life extension. MCA prevents the growth of mold, mildew, bacteria, and fungus in foods and beverages and is most commonly used in canned, jarred, and processed foods. Additionally, it is used for pH regulation, and flavor enhancement. 🍋 So what’s the concern? Well, there are a few. The main health threats posed by *regular consumption* of citric acid, especially the manufactured form, include allergic or inflammatory responses, tooth enamel erosion, and even skin irritation. The Aspergillus niger fungus used to produce MCA is a known allergen. Consumption of MCA may exacerbate preexisting health conditions or trigger allergic or inflammatory responses; leading to symptoms like joint pain, muscle pain, and digestive issues. 🍋 So how do I determine if the citric acid used is natural or manufactured? Check the product label or ingredient list - if it simply lists “citric acid” without specifying the source, it is likely the manufactured/artificial form (MCA). Natural, fruit-derived citric acid would be more explicitly labeled as coming from citrus fruits or other natural sources. 🍋 Life is about balance! I’ll never cut MCA out completely, but I do make a habit of checking ingredient labels and making the best choice with the information & resources I have. #citricacid #processedfoods #ingredientlabels #holisticwellness

Reading food labels when your child is diagnosed is incredibly important and a key skill to develop. If you didn't read labels before as you didn't have time or didn't want to know what was in your food, you now need to read every label every time. You need to equip yourself with the tools you need and understand what food labels are telling you. The tell you what is in a product and whether where it's made will come into contact with gluten, wheat, barley or rye. If you're buying a non labelled gluten free product, it's important to decipher exactly what that label is telling you. It's not just the ingredients you have to check but the allergen info too. Any of the 14 allergens could be listed, but it could say 'may contain' too and sometimes that's easy to miss. Want to know how to read labels well with confidence, then you'll need a copy of my book or watch this space for news coming shortly. We can do it together. Whatever you do, remember ingredients can change at any time. Your trusty gluten free item can change overnight with little noise or fanfare. Maybe not even an 'allergen update' sticker. Check & be safe. #readlabels #coeliacdisease #glutenfree #readlabels #readlabelscarefully #ingredientlabels #ingredients #ingredientsmatter #coeliac #glutenfreekids #glutenfreeuk #coeliaclifestyle #coeliaclife #uk #foodsafety #allergy #allergens #a #autoimmunediet #Allergens #allergensafe #allergens #allergenstickers #autoimmunedisease #uk

First, save this post so you’ll have it for your grocery trip later this week!! 🛒 I literally love reading ingredient labels. I talk to myself at the grocery store and share with my son how appalled I am every time I pick up something that has a random toxic ingredient in it. (See my stories for an example) These toxic ingredients are found everywhere, candy, cookies, cereal, sauces, dressings and pickles. They are used to make fake foods look more appealing or real but have no nutritional value. And the worst part, they are linked to tons of common health issues. I started my health journey by switching to clean foods and haven’t looked back because I have seen some amazing results. No more headaches, my acne cleared and I no longer feel nauseated after every meal. Trust me, I know it sounds daunting having to read every label but the changes it can bring to your health are so worth it. I want to help though, so I have created an e-book. It’s launches Monday 2/26 and will guide you through how to eat clean and give you a list of brands to try. Trust me, there’s still tasty options out there and once you make the changes you won’t miss the old stuff at all!💚 Want to learn more about my new e-book?

Which do you want to hear first: the good news or the bad? … Ok, we'll go with the bad. Despite efforts to tamp down on wine fraud, Italy was once again roiled by allegations of producers making wines with grapes grown outside the appellations that appeared on their labels. In December, the Italian state-owned television station Rai 3's investigative show "Report" explored secrets of the Italian wine world. The most significant among the accusations of fraud involved an organized system of growers and middlemen in the sunny, southern region of Puglia who clandestinely sell table grapes to wine producers in the northern region of Veneto. But 2024 brings cause for cheer on the wine transparency front. New laws for labeling wines sold in the European Union require producers and bottlers to list nutritional values, allergens and ingredients on the labels, starting with the 2024 harvest (and any wines produced after Dec. 8, 2023). The new label law won't stop fraud. But Wine Spectator contributing editor @robertcamuto_writes weighs in on how the regulations—which may also speed changes in the U.S.—could help wine lovers.

The many names of sugar It’s essential to be mindful of sugar intake and to recognise the various names used for sugar in ingredient lists. While sugar can enhance the taste of foods and consuming it can do our bodies no harm, but consuming too much can lead to health issues like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Sugar, in moderate amounts, has been a longstanding component of the human diet, adding sweetness and flavor to countless foods and beverages. It’s true that sugar can be a source of quick energy, and when consumed in moderation, it’s generally not harmful to health. However, it’s also important to recognize that excessive consumption of sugar has been linked to various health issues, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dental problems. One reason why sugar can be considered harmless in small quantities is that our bodies are equipped to handle it. Glucose, a form of sugar, is a primary source of energy for cells, and our bodies have mechanisms to regulate blood sugar levels. When we consume sugar in reasonable amounts, our bodies can efficiently process it, using what’s needed for energy and storing the excess for later use. Moreover, sugar is not inherently toxic. It’s the overconsumption of sugar, especially in the form of added sugars found in processed foods and sugary beverages, that can lead to health issues. Many processed foods contain high amounts of added sugars, which can contribute to weight gain and other health problems when consumed in excess. In conclusion, sugar can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet without causing harm. However, it’s essential to be aware of the various names under which sugar can hide in processed foods and to consume it in reasonable amounts to maintain overall health and well-being. #SugarAwareness #HealthyChoices #NutritionEducation #ReadLabels #SugarSubstitutes #SugarFreeLiving #MindfulEating #WellnessJourney #HealthyLiving #IngredientLabels

Are you eating green chocolate pudding?? 🧩🌱 Artificial colors (food dyes) are derived from petro chemicals that disrupt the immune system, causing hyperactivity in children. 😮These dyes are used to hide the fact that many processed foods do NOT contain any of the nutrients that they claim to contain. 🌭🍪 Take chocolate pudding for example. Red Dye #40 is found in chocolate pudding! Without it your chocolate pudding would actually look green as there is very little actual chocolate in it. 🎯🙈 While the European Union requires warning labels on all foods containing dyes, no warning labels are required in the US. 😡 And in some European countries food dyes have been outright banned. Take the time ⏰to read ingredient labels and avoid foods that contain any kind of food dyes (look for names like “FD&C Red” “Yellow #5”, “Blue #2”, or ”Green #3”. When you know better you do better! 😙💪 🌿Follow me for more life changing tips #artificialcolors #dyesinfood #ingredientlabels #foodcolors #hormonedisruptor #hyperactivityinkids #warninglabels #europeanunion

If there’s one thing you can do this year for your health, it’s to start reading ingredients labels on the food you are purchasing. It is SO important and I cannot stress this enough. Take the extra few seconds to flip over the package and really read the ingredients of what you are about to put into your body. If you’re having trouble pronouncing the ingredient it probably doesn’t benefit your health in any way.🙃 Did you know that ingredients are listed in order of predominance followed by the ingredients used in smaller amounts? This means the first 5 ingredients listed are what you’re consuming the most of. Have more questions about ingredients or want to work together so you can get your health back this year?

Why does this matter? It might not every time.. however if you have health related goals, awareness of what you are consuming will be your best friend. You may experience negative biofeedback, lots of bloating, inflammation, fatigue, the list could go on… This is where knowing what to look out for in the food you are consuming and swaps to make is important to keep you on track to reaching your goals. Yes it may fit your macros and it is so important to always include the foods you enjoy into your lifestyle! That’s why knowledge of this is key, to make informed choices of when you want to eat for enjoyment vs when you want to eat for a specific goal or outcome! #ingredientlabels #ingredients #nutrition #nutritiontips #nutritionawareness #healthjourney #smarteating #healthgoals #nutritionmatters #nutritionfacts #nutritionadvice #healthyswaps #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #healthychoices #macros #calories #fitnessaustralia #tips #onlinecoaching

I started AZ Naturally when my grandchildren were born -- 9 years ago. I remember holding my granddaughter and feeling her soft, soft skin and realizing that nothing harmful should ever be applied to that virgin skin. Now, 9 years later, I am even more committed to making skincare products that are pure, organic and contain the oils our ancestors would use. Foraging in nature has been our ancestors' pharmacy -- whether for medicinal purposes or skincare needs. I feel many symptoms people experience may be tied to what they are putting 'on' their bodies as these ingredients get into the bloodstream and can be harmful. It's not easy to know if it's your lotion, soap, shampoo, etc. that's causing your symptoms or the foods you eat. One thing for sure is that it's a good idea to read ingredients on your skincare products. They are not easy to read so I would suggest putting them into Google to see what they entail. You might be surprised at the results. I was! It can be overwhelming to make changes, but baby steps are the way to go. Maybe you replace one item at a time. Ultimately, you will be doing your body a favor. #aznaturally #skincare #naturalskincareproducts #naturalskincare #organic #nature #toxicingredientsinskincare #cleanliving #ingredientlabels #hormonehealth #endocrinedisruptors #loveyourbody #loveyourskin

Not only are they difficult to pronounce, the ingredients listed on the back of skin care products are notoriously difficult to read thanks to the small font. But look carefully and it can tell you the real value of what you just bought. #skincare #preservatives #ingredientlabels #knowyourproduct #informedchoices #theskinsocial
I've had a lot of peeps ask me about labeling, so I created a quick video showing you how I make mine in @canva LINK IN BIO! I use a thermal printer (check out my Amazon store in bio) & it has been the most cost effective & easiest way to create labels. And trust me, I've tried it all in the last decade 😂. ALSO, my newest eBook, Home Bakery Guide is FINISHED! WOOOOOOT! It'll be going live tomorrow so stay tuned! #elouisebakes #ingredientlabels #canva #homebakery #homebakeryguide #ebook #ihopethishelps #shelbytownship

As we come into the gift giving season, as #ingredientdetective, I’d like to point out these facts. Reading the #ingredientlabels on all products is very important, not just the food labels.
*** How much attention do you pay to ingredient listings? *** I am a self-professed ingredient label junkie! Yes, one of those folk who stops in the supermarket isle and reads the fine print... Why? Because you can't take the product name and picture at face value. You would think you should be able to, but you genuinely can't. As a herbal tea lover I am always interested to see what is on offer in other countries. This box caught my attention as I could see it was a blend. When I look at the name and packaging I think MINT, plus a few other bits (according to the picture cinnamon, orange peel and something else 🤔). It's advertised as Moroccan Mint + spices. The reality is that mint only constitutes 2.4% of the ingredients! 'Aroma' is also listed, I am guessing a bit of mint essential oil has been added via this route. The first ingredient is cinnamon, then chicory root, Rose hips, liquorice, orange peel, Aroma and mint! I am looking forward to tasting it and comparing the flavour profile with the product name. The other thing that is interesting about this product label is that it includes a warning about liquorice and high blood pressure and recommends limiting ones intake of liquorice if one has high blood pressure. As this product contains 18% liquorice I think this is a worthy caution. This might be a food product, but if you were to have 3+ cups a day you would be having a medicinal dose and therefore this does need taking into consideration. If you are wondering how I have made sense of the above, it's because I understand German! There are no English ingredient listings on this product, which I am guessing is due to the UK no longer being part of the EU. This is my first trip to mainland Europe since Brexit - ingredients did used to be listed in English - back in the day!! #ingredientlisting #ingredientlabels #understandingingredients #productlabelling #lookinggood #clevermarketing #dontjudgeabookbyitscover #readthefineprint #herbaltea #herbaltealover #whatisinthebox #herbalist
Location freedom. Work from anywhere, whenever you need. When I started using Arbonne’s skin care at the age of 24, I wasn’t thinking anti-aging and I sure wasn’t thinking income opportunity. It took off my makeup, it felt nice on my skin, and it helped reduce breakouts - that’s all I was looking for at the time 🙌🏼. Fast forward 10 years later (insert their incredible nutrition line), and a better understanding for ingredients in foods and products, I decided to start sharing my love of everything the company stands for with you. And now 7 years in to actually treating this like the powerful business opportunity it is, I can say it has completely changed who I am. I am without a doubt a better human being for all that Arbonne has taught me; healthier, kinder, more committed to my family & marriage than I ever have been, and above all has built a belief in myself that makes me unstoppable. If a life of choice (all while taking care of you) is what you are wanting, you need to consider taking a look at what Arbonne offers, and you know that I am more than happy to help you with that 😉 #entrepreneuriallife #my9to5 #locationfreedomlifestyle #locationfreedom #ingredientlabels #glutenfreeproducts #dairyfreeproducts #workfromhomeoffice #workfromhomejobs #lovemylife
It’s Friday night. Chances are 50% of you reading this will have 1-2 glasses tonight. Do yourself a favor, LOOK at the back label of your wine bottle for the ingredients label. No ingredient label on your bottle? Perhaps it’s time to try our wines. You know EXACTLY what’s in your bottle & what you’re putting in your body. Believe me, your body will thank you. #cleaneating #pesticidefree #roundup #additivefree #cancersucks #liveclean #ingredientlabels
