New Nutrition Label

In the Article “Your Favorite Drinks Can Wreck Your Body” by Russ Lloyd that said “Yes” to having labels on Sugary Drinks. People think that having sugar in your drinks is good because they know what they are drinking and what is going to happen to them if they drink too much of it. Then there are others that think that it is not ok having labels on the drinks. They say that they will ruin the drinks and they will ruin the company's money that they are getting from making the sugary drinks. I agree with putting “Sugar Labels” on the sodas that we drink. The reasons why people say that it is good to have the labels on it is if they drink too much of the drink them they can get sick, how much sugar is in the drink and if they do get rid of the sugar them the taste. In conclusion, sugary drinks should have a warning Label because people need to know what is about to go into there body and what might happen to them if they consume too much of the drinks.

Every year, consumers will spend 2.2 billion dollars on candy this year, witch is 22 teaspoons sugar per day, and 75 pounds sugar per year. In video of “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Sugar”, John Oliver is point out the food or drink company is not tell the truth to people how much the sugar are added to our food. For example, the hidden sugars including crackers, salad dressings, breads, ketchup, energy and sports drinks. These staff including a lot sugar that we don’t know, even most people like eat sugar and things mix with sugar taste good, but the point is excess sugar is not good for us. In the video, John Oliver’s purpose is tell the truth and fact about how much sugar we eat that

Sadly, Nutrition Facts labels are not generally authentic. For one thing, the law permits a truly remiss room for give and take up to 20 percent for the expressed esteem versus real estimation of supplements. Actually, that implies a 100-calorie pack could, hypothetically, contain up to 120 calories and still not abuse the law. A similar room for mistakes goes for different supplements also, which doesn't look good for diabetic carb counters, people with hypertension who are watching sodium admission, or mothers hoping to support the iron substance of their infants' eating methodologies. The FDA has never settled a precise, irregular name reviewing procedure, and consistence with the law is relied upon to act naturally implemented by nourishment

(3)Many of the food industry officials say that the proposal is unnecessary. The current food labels give the total amount of sugar in the product. Many of the grocery manufacturers think that this change in the labels will help consumers with buying the products. There are people that believe that the sugar pack campaign will help people realize how much sugar is really in a can of soda and a candy

Down the road, added sugar has increased health complications tenfold. According to Quanhe Yang, from the Center of Disease and Control, “ 'death resulting from cardiovascular disease increases exponentially from added sugar consumption.' ”(Hellmich) Atherosclerosis, the most common cause of cardiovascular disease, is caused by correctable problems such as

The Labeling and Education Act of 1990 was the last major government action involving nutrition labeling, which did not take effect until 1994. This action required that serving size and nutrition labeling to be clearly displayed on packaged foods that were being sold at the grocery stores. Restaurant and other ready-to-eat food were exempted from this new law. But in 2014, twenty years after this action went into effect; the FDA released a proposed rule to renew the nutrition-facts label, which required packaged foods to include the amount of sugar, and to increase the size of the calorie label font, making it easier for consumers to read the labels.

Most people are quick to blame Americans waistlines bigger on sugar. But until now, people didn’t realize that sugar increases your rate of getting heart decease. Scientist where recently paid to too research the dangers of fat while not eating sugar. They did that to make people diet for the years to come. Fat and sugar is the leading cause of heart decease.

The center says the makeover is a must to clarify and to standout important parts of the label and also to prevent misleading words from confusing customers. Some of the changes they want to fix and I agree are to put calorie and serving size information in larger type at the top of the label. That way it’s the first thing consumers read and know how much they are eating right away. Another change they want to make is to use red labeling and the 20 percent of the daily recommended for fats, sugars, sodium or cholesterol. Those are some changes that could probably help consumers read food labels and understand them

In the article “Added Sugars Labeling Proposal” by Bruce Silverglade, I agree with the author that “The FDA should take Health Canada's lead and ditch its added sugars labeling proposal” (Silverglade, 2015). Moreover, I agree with Silverglade that the FDA should take Canada's approach towards labeling sugars because Canada's proposal for enhancing sugar labels sounds a lot easier for most people to read and comprehend. Furthermore, not only is Canada's label easier to understand, but it also gives people a better understanding of how much sugar they should be consuming, as well as the types of sugars included. Not only is Canada's proposal simpler to understand, but when Canadian consumers were presented with both Canada's and the U.S. proposal,

Very few people understand how much sugar they should be ingesting on a daily basis, and even fewer have a grasp on how to quantify that number. Food labels depict sugar content in terms of grams, but how many grams of sugar should you strive to have each day? Have you ever noticed that the sugar industry is not required to put a daily percentage on food labels? Red flag, don’t you think?

The relationship between sugar and diabetes is quite complex. The quantity of sugar delivered into the blood stream matter more than the source. Nevertheless, many refined food items such as beverages contain free sugar which leads to a rapid rise in blood sugar levels. Many argue that sugar intake cannot directly result in diabetes. However, everyone agrees that weight gain (which may be caused by excessive sugar intake) has a direct relationship with diabetes. This was reported by a review of several studies showing a link between sugar-sweetened drinks and

I have noticed the absurd price increases in grocery stores lately. For example, I am a baker and one week I went to BJ's and bought a 60-count pack of eggs for $5.99. The next week, that same pack was $12.99! The associates said the increase was because of bird flu, but whatever the cause, I will soon need to get a couple of chickens in the backyard! Who can afford these outrageous prices?! If we didn't have to eat, we'd be rich and skinny! That is why I think it is very important for Congress to ensure we have a single, less costly national standard for labeling food products. The sooner you pass the Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2015, the better.

I think that they should have labels of teaspoons of sugar. The outrage over the idea reveals the extent that extra sugar is added to even the most unlikely foods. It also shows how concerned manufacturers are about consumers finding out. The big companies are scare to show their buyers how much sugar they put in there products.

There are good and bad foods sold in grocery stores. Foods that have nutrition labels are processed, packaged food and foods without nutrition labels are whole foods. We should be cautious when shopping for foods with nutrition labels because it is not healthy, high in fat and sugar, which could lead to obesity or health problems, and they are low in fiber. When searching for healthy foods, the first you want to check if there are zero trans fat molecules because they do not provide any health benefits to your body. You also want to check the amount of dietary fiber and grams of protein. You need at least three grams of dietary fiber for every 100 calories and 51 grams of protein, so you have a healthy digestive system. Calories from

Nutrition labelling of foods is one of the strategies adopted that is aimed to providing a means for conveying information of the nutrient content on the label to assist consumers in adopting healthy dietary practices. Ministry of Health identified food labelling as “one of the important population-based approaches that can help consumers make healthy food choices by providing the necessary information about the food on the pack”(Indian MOH,2009).Describe the nutritional qualities of a food product factually and informatively it is the main objective of nutrition labelling . Although not the primary aim of nutrition labelling is nutrition education , it does supplement
