What's in your Food?


Understanding how to read a food label is your key to making smarter, healthier decisions in your daily life—especially when managing chronic illness or serious health conditions. In America and many other countries, processed foods are required by law to display a complete list of ingredients and nutritional values. But at first glance, these labels can seem overwhelming and complicated. This guide breaks through the confusion and simplifies the process so that anyone can easily understand what to look for.


By following this easy-to-use guide, you’ll learn to focus on the critical aspects of a label—serving sizes, macronutrients, ingredients, and hidden additives—so you can make informed choices that support your health goals. Whether you're aiming to reduce sugar intake, lower sodium, or fuel your body with the nutrients it needs, understanding a food label empowers you to take control of your diet and well-being.


We challenge you to take action: grab some food packages from your pantry and review the labels using this guide. The more you practice, the more confident you'll become in making choices that benefit your health. Download the guide and keep it handy—whether printed out or saved on your phone—as a reference for your next grocery trip. Your health journey starts with knowledge, and this guide is your tool to make informed, empowered decisions every day.
