Start small and read one food label today

Feeling overwhelmed by the information on food labels? Fear not, our favorite tips and tricks are below. 

Three ways to master food labels

  1. Look at the top of the label. Read the calories per serving and think about how many servings you normally eat. Remember, if you eat two servings, you’ll need to double the calories and all the other nutrients on the label.
  2. Peek at the fat and sodium content. The American Heart Association recommends the average person consume less than 13 grams of saturated fat, no trans fats, and less than 1,500 mg of sodium per day.
  3. Check the amount of soluble fiber. Remember that eating enough dietary fiber each day can lower your levels of LDL, or bad, cholesterol.

The next time you’re shopping, just remember that some of the healthiest foods in the store, like fresh fruits and vegetables don’t need a nutrition label to tell you they’re good for you!

Small changes to your diet can keep you and your heart healthy. Try a new healthy habit by reading one food label today.
