Do you know what you're consuming?

There are a lot of secrets in the food and market industry, a lot of sly things to make us believe we're eating healthier than we actually are.  So what should we be looking for on the packaging of our meals, ingredients etc?

Did you know:
There is only one official '1-of-your-5-a-day' logo that has been approved by the Food Standards Agency? The rest are all just ploys to make you believe you are having a healthier meal than you actually are. Food companies can shove an Apple in a box and smother it in sugar and salt, and still put their own '1-of-your-5-a-day' stickers on the packaging.
These stickers are helping the sales of meals that contain high amounts of sugar, salts and fats, which obviously aren't good for you. If you guys get the chance to, Watch the Dispatches documentary, 'Myths about your 5-a-day' because it will reveal many truths that we should be aware of!

This is the official logo, only foods that contain no added sugar, and added salts are allowed to use this logo. If you see any other logo, check the salt and sugar content in the packaging, to see what you're about to purchase! Don't be fooled by the other logos!

And just because there is a logo on the packaging doesn't mean it even contains one portion of fruit of veg! (Refer to the programme to see their findings). Be sure you know what counts as your 5-a-day! FIND OUT HERE

Another big deception that companies are throwing on us is the use artificial sugars and sweeteners, that are found in 'diet' and other such drinks. The use of Aspartame in these drinks, takes away the calories, while keeping the sweetness within them. Sounds amazing doesn't it. But it is all too good to be true. 'Diet' and similar claiming drinks and beverages are actually A LOT worse for you, as the Aspartame within them slowly destroy neurons inside of you, and you wouldn't even begin to notice until at least 75% of those neurons in a particular area of the brain are already gone.
