EAT your labels!

January 6, 2015 by Jennifer Silverberg 1 Comment

Food labels are a hot topic – nutritionists and the FDA urge us to read them, know the ingredients, and use that knowledge to make healthy choices. But who (other than food scientists) actually knows what common ingredients like Sodium Benzoate (linked to thyroid damage) or Butylated Hydroxyanisole (serious endocrine disrupter) actually are, anyway? And as reported by the Journal of Food Additives and Contaminents, over 175 damaging chemicals are found in food packaging itself – many transferring into foods while on the shelf.

Instead, avoid foods with labels altogether, and instead choose organic foods with edible labels :-).
