Unlock the secrets behind nutrition labels and become a savvy shopper armed with the knowledge to make healthier choices! On this episode of Tea with Tina, we dissect the intricacies of serving sizes and reveal why weighing your food in grams offers a more precise picture of your diet. Prepare to be surprised by how common marketing labels like "organic" or "gluten-free" can mislead, giving processed foods an undeserved healthy halo. We'll discuss real-world examples, such as Pop-Tarts and Oreos, to help you navigate these deceptive practices and remind you to check if nutritional info applies to the food's current stateโ€”cooked or uncooked.

We also cover the transformative power of mindful nutritional tracking. Learn how a good food tracker can help you align your daily intake with your health goals, ensuring you get enough fiber and protein, especially if you're an active individual. Discover the importance of accurately identifying essential vitamins and minerals, such as calcium and iron, and why you should avoid self-diagnosing deficiencies. We'll guide you through scrutinizing ingredient lists for quality and authenticity, highlighting misleading practices like the use of apple juice in fruit beverages. Plus, we explain how percent daily values often cater to sedentary lifestyles and might not suit everyone. Empower yourself with the insights to make informed, balanced food choices for a healthier lifestyle.
