Bad! More 30% 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.

Today cholesterol is no longer a villain. The 2010's USDA guidelines told us to limit cholesterol from foods
Now experts say cholesterol is "not a nutrient of concern" because cholesterol from foods doesn't cause higher
blood cholesterol levels.
Nevertheless try to consume no more than 300 milligrams daily.
This product has 90 mg of cholesterol or more.

How to lower the cholesterol intake? Here are some advices

• Try to limit your cheese, dairy and meat intake to one item per meal.
• Avoid meals with multiple sources of cholesterol (chicken with cheese, junk food)
• Try to indclude in your diet low- or nonfat dairy, seafood, legumes and nuts.
• Choose water instead of milk for your coffee.

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!

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

Great! Contains less than 1.5 tsp of sugar per serving!

It is not really good to have a breakfast with so little amount of fiber!
Your morning meal should have more fiber or it won't have good effect on your health.
You should add some natural fiber to your cereal or switch to a better one, that has more than 4g of fiber per serving.
Some suggestions to make this product better:

• add some fresh fruits or eat them as a dessert
• add some seeds or nuts
• add any high fiber cereal (for example Granola or bran)

There is not much fiber in here and that's not good!
Your breakfast should have more fiber and this cereal alone won't do the trick.
Either switch to a healthier cereal (with at least 4 grams of naturally occurring fiber)
or add some healthy natural fiber to your cereal or breakfast.

TIPS on adding fiber to cereal:

• Mix in some high fiber cereal, like wheat bran
• Add 2 Tbsp of ground flax seeds
• Eat fresh fruit or berries

It is used as a thickener in products such as ice cream, jelly, chocolate milk, infant formula, cottage cheese.
It is a vegetarian and vegan alternative to gelatin.
It has been used for hundreds of years in Ireland and China, but only made headway into modern food processing in the last 50 years.
The processing steps after harvesting the seaweed include drying, grounding, filtration, treatment with potassium hydroxide, removal of cellulose by centrifuge, concentration by evaporation, drying, and grounding.
Interestingly, the Philippines account for the vast majority of the world supply of carrageenan.
In some animal studies, carrageenan was shown to cause intestinal lacerations and tumors.
A 2001 meta-study of 45 peer-reviewed studies concluded that carrageenan consumption may result in gastrointestinal malignancy and inflammatory bowel.
The FDA has approved carrageenan as safe, basing its decision on industry funded studies.
European agencies and the World Health Organization have also deemed carrageenan safe, with the exception of infant formula.
The fear is the a baby's gut may be unable to handle the large carrageenan molecules.
In some individuals carrageenan may cause intestinal discomfort or worse.

Sulfites (sulphites) are inorganic salts that are used as antioxidant of food preservative or enhancer.
They may appear on food labels in various forms, such as: sulfur dioxide, potassium bisulfite, potassium metabisulfite, sodium bisulfite, sodium metabisulfite or sodium sulfite
Although sulphites do not cause a true allergic reaction, people with sensitivity to sulfites may experience similar reactions as those with food allergies.
Those who have asthma are most at risk to sulphite sensitivity.
BTW sulfites are included in the ten priority food allergens in Canada.
