Stop comparing product A to product B in the grocery aisle based on the label. Fill your cart with label-free nutrient dense foods like vegetables, fruit, bulk whole grains, quality protein, eggs, nuts and seeds. Save the foods with confusing labels for 20% of the time or less and it won’t matter much if it was product A or B. Focus on what the food actually contains, not what it lacks. In many cases, a claim of “sugar-free” or “no trans fat” is as helpful as “dirt-free” or “contains no hair”. Ask what you are about to ingest, not what you won’t be getting from the food. #PositiveVersusNegativeNutrition #ChueyOnThis
