The Wake Up Call

Wake Up Call Nutrition Fit Tip.
Packaged food.
I found a great guidline to help you at the supermarket when your choosing packaged food.It’s so hard to find a product that isn’t low in SALT, PRESERVATIVES,SUGAR,SATURATED FAT and of course the multiple colouring numbers that many of us ask, what the hell does that mean?
Put up your blog hand and let me know if you can read a nutrition label on a product, that’s SO small you need a magnifying glass to read it, thats if you can find it on the product.
Ok, this one is from Australia, for those of you in other countries adapt this to your measurements, trust me there won’t be much difference.
