Over 20% of daily saturated fat!
Bad! More 20% of daily saturated fat!
For years Saturated fat was claimed to raise cholesterol levels and give us heart attacks. Today different studies refute this claim. They say, that replacing saturated fat with carbohydrates or refined starch or sugar is not changing the heart disease risk. Not processed carbs nor saturated fats are good for you. Only if you replace it with polyunsaturated fat, you'll get a reduction in heart disease risk. So try to have a balanced diet. -
Oh dear! Very salty! Over 50% of daily sodium allowance
The average American consumes 5,000 mg of sodium daily — twice the recommended amount amount of 2400mg for healthy adults, this is 1 teaspoon of salt.
For medical reasons many people should not exceed 1500mg of sodium.
Surprisingly, you're responsible for only 15% of the sodium in your diet the bigger part - 75% of the sodium that you consume each day comes from processed foods, not home cooking or the salt shaker.
Excess sodium intake increases the risk of high blood pressure, hypernatremia, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and other heart problems.
Are these reasons enough to cut the sodium intake? No doubt! -
Convert Salt tsps to Sodium mg easily
Salt (NaCl) is not excactly sodium (Na).
It is not right to use these terms as synonyms.
The FDA recommended limit of sodium is 2,300 mg per day (or even less - about 1500 mg while one is on low sodium diets).
This is much less than the weight of salt.
(5,750 mg per day or 3,750 mg for low sodium diet) and not so convenient to calculate.
Know how much sodium is in your salt - without a calculator:
1/4 tsp salt = 600 mg sodium
1/2 tsp salt = 1200 mg sodium
3/4 tsp salt = 1800 mg sodium
1 tsp salt = 2300 mg sodium -
2 tsp of sugars per serving
This volume includes both naturally occurring from ingredients and specially added sugars.
USDA tells us that last years each American consumed an average 130 pounds of caloric sweeteners per year!
That works out to 30 tsp of sugars per day approximately 480 extra calories!
Just to think: Eating just 200 more calories daily than your body requires for body functioning and exercise leads to a 20-pound weight gain in a year. -
VERY high fiber >44% DV. Proceed slowly
Fiber is a very important part of your diet, it improves your metabolism and helps keep your digestive system running smoothly.
But taking in too much and too fast can leave you bloated and gassy. -
Interested in getting more protein?
Protein is important, but some of the protein you find in this product isn't exactly natural.
The protein comes from one of the following sources:
- milk protein concentrate
- whey protein isolate
- soy protein isolate
and that it's not ideal to get protein only from processed goods.
If you're looking for more protein, try beans, quinoa, nuts, seeds, peas and spinach & leafy greens.
Not only do they have protein, they're filled with other vitamins and minerals. -
Great source of protein and fiber
Beans and legumes are great source of protein and fiber. But You should watch for sodium in canned versions.
-
Contains MSG!
Monosodium Glutamate is used as a flavor enhancer with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food.
Naturally occurring glutamate does it in foods such as stews and meat soups.
Despite the fact that MSG is one of the most extensively studied food ingredients and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by FDA.
Some people should steer away from it as they feel that react adversely to MSG.
MSG is generally found in processed, low-quality foods, stuff that you shouldn’t be eating much.
REMEMBER: Any food ingredient listed as hydrolyzed, protein-fortified, ultra-pasteurized, fermented or enzyme-modified is often MSG, or creates free glutamic acid during processing. -
Controversial additive BHT present
BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) is primarily used as an antioxidant food additive, mainly to prevent oils and fats in foods from oxidizing and becoming rancid.
It is GRAS in the US, but forbidden as food additive in Japan (since 1958), Romania, Sweden, and Australia.
Some studies have shown that it is carcinogenic.
Avoid it, there are foods available without this danger.
