WASHINGTON DC: It has been observed that more and more people are getting interested in keeping themselves fit as a fiddle.
As a matter of fact, to be health-conscious is actually a good thing!
In order to keep themselves healthy, countless people opt for reduced-fat products such as diet biscuits, juices and chips etc.
But do you know that you are making fool of yourself by doing this. A nouvel study has discovered that those branded products are misguiding you.
According to the reports, no fat, sugar or salt on food labeling might give consignees the self-assurance prior to purchasing. However, these avers hardly ever show the authentic nutritional excellence of the foodstuff.
Supporting their belief, the study senior investigator from the University Of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the US, Lindsey Smith Taillie maintained that those products claiming that foods contain low-sugar, fat or salt have been found with shoddier nutritional stuff than those sans such claims.
So as to determine this, they have gone through the records of over 80 million foods and beverages purchased by more than 40,000 households.
It has further been learnt that there is an association amid the socio-economic class and food buying. The middle and upper class individuals tend to pick out foods and beverages with low-content proclamation.
They have reported their up shots in the paper published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
