What To Get Rid Of First
When reading labels, a rule of thumb should be the fewer ingredients, the better. Additionally, when reading the ingredients, if they are difficult to pronounce, or you simply do not know what it is, it is probably best to avoid that food. The worst offenders tend to be any food that is microwaveable such as frozen meals, as well as most foods found inside a vending machine. Cutting out processed foods entirely can be challenging, so it is important to take baby steps, rather than quitting processed foods cold turkey. There are also many processed foods that have very few ingredients, such as tomato sauce. Buying or better yet, making pasta, then adding a jar of tomato sauce is a much healthier alternative to microwaving a frozen spaghetti entrée.
