Ep. 281: 'Deciphering' Nutrition Labels with Akshaye Jalan

See this content in the original post

This episode is about understanding nutritional information provided behind food products.
On the 2nd episode with Akshaye Jalan, owner at PlanMyFood, Ashdin and Akshaye continue their discussions on food labels. They talk about nutrition vs ingredients labels, why keeping the serving size in mind is more important than nutritional values, trans-fats, how we should all be keeping a track of trans-fats in our food, and what we should look for when a product says 'fat-free' on it. They also talk about the 3 S's - salt, sugar and saturated fat, how percentage values are a good way to ascertain if a particular product is good to be consumed or not (anything above 20% DV is good for us), things we should be avoiding, some tips for when reading a nutrition label, and lots more!

On the 1st episode with Akshaye, Ashdin and he talked about the ingredients part of food labels and the PlanMyFood app. Do check that out if you missed it.
