Please be aware of the controversies around the artificial sweeteners that these ingredients cause gastric discomfort, laxative effect as well as destroy some beneficial micro-organisms present in the stomach.So switching out of artificial sweeteners to all-natural, low-sugar substitutes or just controlling your taste bud is a smart option.
- What's in the name - Ragi CookiesThe product name can be misleading. Check the Nutrition label and ingredients to know the real story.The name Ragi Cookies makes one believe that the product will provide all the goodness of Ragi such as high dietary fibres and source of vitamins and minerals. However a look at the ingredients reveals that the dietary fibre is from Inulin and Apple Fruit Fibre and there is no mention of presence of vitamins or minerals normally associated with Ragi.
- Highly Processed!Additives are added to the packaged foods for different reasons varying from increasing shelf life, to provide flavour and texture, increasing nutrition quality or required to manufacture some types of food.One of the ways to determine the degree of Processing is the number of additives you find in the ingredient list. The higher the number of additives greater is the degree of processing. Additives can be identified by looking for ingredients that begin with 'E' and have a number in them.It is generally recommended that food that is closer to nature is better hence it is better to choose food products with lesser number of additives.
