Avoid toxic products, learn to read food labels that you buyA
stroll down grocery store aisles can be very tempting: rows and rows of
delicious food all packaged colorful, encouraging you to add to the
cart, with catchy names and messages tempting, "natural", "tasty" , "economic", "delicious".
At
first glance, if we were to take after attractive packaging, but
sometimes intense taste of products, all food should be commercially
available and nutritious and good, and of their consumull just to get
benefits.
In order to better realize what is hidden behind an attractive label I want to talk a bit about processed foods. What is a processed food? Processed
food is whose properties have been altered from their natural state for
economic, convenience (high accessibility, speed training, etc.) but
also safety. The
methods used for processing foods include preserving, freezing,
refrigeration, dehydration, aseptic processing, the addition of
preservatives, fragrances, dyes, thickeners. There
processed products that improve their quality, microbiological maintain
a good condition, so that we, the consumers, we can take full advantage
of their skills. As
an example we can mention here the milk, which is pasteurized once a
term of validity is SPF, does not require boiling before consumption
which helps preserve vitamins and other nutrients. However,
when we read the carton of milk out of milk normalized see that it does
not contain anything else and give us easily realize that we face a
sure thing. This thing can not be said about those products where the ingredients list spans several lines and those written in lowercase.Nutritionists
have put in agreement that the best thing would be to avoid packaged
products that contain more than 5 ingredients, following the principle
that the more a product has more ingredients, the more likely it is
processed.For
these reasons we must learn to read the labels of the products we buy
to avoid commercial traps and long-term effects of toxins.Choose to describe in the following well-known label Romanian pork pate. Even though the ingredients may vary in scale from a trademark to another, the number is about the same every time.

is added as a thickening agent because it has properties, but is a
polysaccharide consisting of a chain of glucose molecules, has a high
caloric load.8. Sugar - extra flavor, yet extra calories.9. Onions10. Wheat starch11. Polyphosphate - water is used to stabilize the product. Polyphosphates unbalanced calcium phosphorus balance, preventing the fixing calcium in bones. While, in the case of high consumption, osteoporosis can occur.12. Spice13. Yeast extract - or E 621, used in processed food to give more taste and flavor. Also masks bitter or sour taste of the product.14.

gum E412 - substance used as a thickening agent for various products
like beverages, soups, cheese and some frozen desserts for properties to

effects of such substances include allergies, hormonal disorders, liver
disorders, intestinal and liver diseases, hepatobiliary disorders,
digestive disorders, nervous disorders and increased cholesterol levels.17. Xanthan gum E415 thickener, is obtained by fermenting corn sugar with a special bacteria.
