Description
How to read a food label. Information on a food label can be used to ensure that you get the nutrients you need without exceeding recommended limits on less healthy substances such as salt and trans fats.




Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature
Polyunsaturated fats (such as omega-3 fatty acids) and monounsaturated fats (such as oleic acid) have specific health benefits

Saturated fats (in meat and dairy products) can increase risk of heart disease, stroke, or cancer

Trans fats are worse than saturated fats
