  • Fibre Source
    Product with decent amount of Dietary Fibre (5%-10% of day's recommended intake) is better than a similar one with zero or negligible amount of fibre) - at least it's a start! 

    Packaged foods generally do not have Dietary fibre so a product with some amount of dietary fibre is always welcome. 

    Fibre is not a nutrient but plays a key role in managing your body regularities - Bowel movement - Keeping constipation at bay, a control on Blood Sugar spike and check on blood cholesterol. 

    However, follow the principle of balance and don't go overboard by eating only fibre rich food.
  • High in Good FatGood Fat ! Yes that's correct, Fat is not all bad. The Unsaturated Fat is also referred to as the Healthier Fat as it is source of essential fats (Omega 3 & Omega 6). Fats and oils that we generally consume are rich in omega 6 so try an incorporate the essential omega 3 containing foods in your daily diet. To identify the healthy fat in a food product, look for the Monounsaturated Fat (MUFA) and Polyunsaturated Fat (PUFA) on the nutrition label of the food. The higher the share these types have in the Total Fat or Lipid the better is the product. This does not mean that you should have more of a product just because it is high in Unsaturated Fats. While selecting a food product prefer the one with energy from Fat not be more 30% of total energy available in the product and there is more of the unsaturated fats.
  • Food Sensitivity Alert for MSG
    Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is the sodium salt of the common amino acid i.e. Glutamic acid, popular for its usage as flavouring agent in Asian Cooking. 

    This glutamate salt is also found naturally in various foods such as tomatoes and cheese as well as ingredients such as hydrolyzed vegetable protein, hydrolysed groundnut protein, autolyzed yeast, hydrolyzed yeast, yeast extract, soy extracts, and protein isolate. 

    Some people are sensitive to MSG having adverse effects such as headache, depression, etc. on regular consumption of this salt. Indian law requires that foods containing Added MSG list it in the ingredient panel on the packaging with the warning that it should not be consumed by infants below 12 months. However, if ingredients that have naturally occurring MSG, are added to the product then the product may not specify in regards to its presence. 

    Pregnant & Lactating women & Infants should avoid Products containing MSG .
  • Know your Food - Flavouring Substances
    Flavouring Substances are added to Food products either to regain the flavour it would have lost during processing e.g. juices or to add a new desired flavour e.g. in case of biscuits, vanilla flavour may be added to otherwise food product without any flavour.

    Based on the resemblance of the flavouring substance to its natural occurrence, it is classified as natural, nature identical or artificial flavouring substance. Read this blog to find more about different flavouring substances.
