These claims on foods really healthy?

Contains fruit nutrition

This is common in beverage and snack food packaging.

Say this means that inside the number added fruit or fruit juice. But how much? this is unclear. Eyes wide unless you take a closer look at the small print on the side of the packaging. Finally, in case you find that "the original juice content ≥ 2.5%", that is to say, this is indeed the juice is negligible.

Contains fruit nutrition, nor necessarily the fresh fruit.

Some products put a small piece of fruit, but this fruit after high temperature sterilization, or canned fruit, it is no longer and the nutritional value of fresh fruit. For example, the shelf life of fruit block yogurt, 21 days off for two weeks of fruit pieces really so much health value? can then concentrated aromas of? like that kind of product, just like the fruit flavor and sugar.

The so-called fruit nutrition, often just a marketing reasons, a beautiful consists of a header.

It's so fond of fruit nutrition, why 24 hours which cannot take a few minutes to eat fresh fruit? or, again, why not buy a bottle of drink is extremely convenient for 100% pure fruit juice?

Contains two food nutrition

This class is commonly found in milk and milk drinks.

Products, both raw fruits, milk ingredients, and tell you that not enough fruit nutrition, milk nutritious enough, only drink it this product is enough. Many people believe, pure milk and fresh fruit, to let children to drink these beverages.

In fact this is what is advertising creative staff led by the nose of the tragedy of typical thinking.

Clever consumers but may, in turn, I think, the truth is like this: on milk nutrition, it is not as good as pure milk; on fruit nutrition, it is not as good as pure juice. Indeed, it even 50% of milk plus 50% of the fruit's nutritional value. There's also a thickening agent, sugar, flavors ... Simply use these things to attract the consumer's taste for those who are not satisfied with the taste of milk, sweet beverage people of boundless love can justifiably drink sweet "milk".

It really is ridiculous.

People believe in "milk can't drink and juice together, on one side and" believe "milk and juice nutrition more"; one side believes that "milk, and soy milk can't be together drink", but also believe "plant protein and animal protein drink." Is there a right mind? what is advertising and what the letter said, that neither the quasi idea.

High dietary fiber

This is common in biscuits and desserts.

Modern people serious lack of dietary fiber, and even the recommended amount of one half to eat. So add some fiber supply, it is a very good thing indeed. So many who love healthy people are attracted by such words. Even some products simply declared that "10%" fiber content, the more attractive to consumers. Unfortunately, these fibers do exist, but are saturated fats.

This is because the grain, pulses in the bearing are insoluble fiber that nature is "rough".

Those who jumped out of thin people, accustomed to the fine white thin person, can't stand the rough feel. 3% of the fibers have bring ligation voice, let alone 10 per cent? but these so-called high-fibre products why did taste great, rough and not roughness? just grease lubrication "in there".

Fiber features after oil.

Paper is made from cellulose products. Put a small piece of tissue from the ink, oil-soaked, feel is not immediately supple many? tore up will not be difficult to swallow. Therefore, the higher fiber products, typically the amount of fat. Also, because the saturated fat soft fiber role better, usually containing large amounts of saturated fat hydrogenated vegetable oil or butter, lard, butter and other animal to take care of these products. — Where there are health value.

Contains vitamin C

Vitamins are good things, especially people awareness highest vitamin C, because businesses are given a "nurse", is almost the most attractive female eye a nutrition glossary.

In the beverage, as long as the claim that add vitamin c, it will allow women alike.

In fact, it contains vitamin c and no rare or little cost increase.

If you only say vitamin but not that much, with basically no hope, because it did not intend to charge for content. Moreover, apart from vitamin c in fruits and there are many health ingredients and nutrients, some of the drinks in addition to vitamin C what good things, drink it and eat a small grain of vitamin c tablets drinking a glass of boiled water is not much difference, but little pills only 3 cents, and drink to several dollars, it adds a lot of sugar and flavour, vitamin C also possible degradation of oxidation, in fact, it is better to drink water plus pills health.

Does not contain cholesterol

All vegetable oils do not contain cholesterol, really nothing worth boasting.

This may seem meaningless, is casually used consumer ignorance implies that the other oil products may contain cholesterol, is suspected of unfair competition. Really I am told, only buy some oil products, because it "does not contain cholesterol." I said, the other cooking oil does cholesterol? she said, who knows, I'm not sure ... I am silent. Are vegetable oil where cholesterol? unless artificial animal inside, plus ...

Does not contain cholesterol, does not mean that this oil on lipid necessarily have any special advantages, more does not mean eating this oil will not let people gain weight.

For example, the Palm does not contain cholesterol, but it's saturation level higher than the lard. Contains cholesterol, nor aIt certainly is not good for your health, such as fish oil and cod liver oil, contain cholesterol. Both contain no cholesterol, less eat oil, don't eat those heating oil too many times, is the most important thing.

Said here, suddenly thought of now oil products in fashion plus some "healthy ingredients", such as what actually fish also appears in the blend oil.

Consumers may wish to think about it, the top grade fish oil used in health care what price infants? you bought what price children blend oil? not fish oil with too little, that is fish oil level is too low. In fact, fish oil is very low in fat, and there is taste and easy oxidation, also special scared to heat, no cooking. Japan's practice is to put it, to taste, hydrogenation and then as SOAP, cosmetics products. Now fish oil added to the cooking oil, to make it subject to high fever, but also as a selling point, without worrying that I hope is unnecessary ...
