How To Read Food Labels on the Saturday Morning Diet 
Why Knowing What They Tell  You Is Important
FDA
The Food and Drug Administration standardized nutritional information to consumers on January 6, 1993.
The law now requires that the number of calories, total fat and amount of saturated fat in each serving. Labels must also include vitamins and minerals, total carbohydrates, sodium, cholesterol,fiber and proteins. 
Labeling forced food processors to reduce the amount of Trans Fats in their products.
Serving Size
Nutrition facts on the label are based on a single serving of standardized amounts, that helps you compare similar foods.
It is important to watch the servings per container to make a accurate evaluation.
Amount Of Calories
It is critical that you remember that the label reads "calories PER serving". A product may read 240 calories but if there are 4 servings in the product, it means that you will consume 960.  
This is where weight control comes into play, you must balance how many calories you eat verses how many calories your body uses. 
Dietary FAT!
The FDA advises that eating too much fat, trans fat, saturated fat, sodium or cholesterol may increase your risk of chronic diseases. 
Be especially aware of the fats on the label, to prevent weight gain. 
Fiber
Dietary Fiber is important to help reduce the risks of several conditions and diseases. 
Fiber will keep you regular and reduce blood sugar spikes in your diet. 
Sugars
It is important to know what types of sugar you are eating. 
Different sugars found in food are easier on the the digestive system than others.
High Fructose Corn Syrup- research reports that HFCS can significantly cause weight gain.  It also means that the food it is found in is also highly processed. 
Percent Daily Value
This is a quick point of reference for the amount of nutrients provided by    a single serving.
