Testing instruments take you out of misunderstandings and misunderstandings on food labeling

'Health' is a state pursued by most people, for which people have paid a lot of action-especially in diet. As obesity becomes a more common condition, people begin to control their dietary balance, and many people even take the initiative to choose foods that seem to be low in calories, low in fat, and low in energy, or seem to be less prone to residual harmful substances. But, did you know that these seemingly healthier foods may just be a 'scam' created by businesses using food labels.  Although, under the premise of legality, the use of food labels needs to be in accordance with the facts, but this does not mean that it cannot mislead consumers out of context. When we walked into the mall, there were an endless stream of green foods, sugar-free beverages, and non-fried snacks; however, have you ever thought that green foods are not necessarily healthy, sugar-free beverages may use sweeteners, and non-fried foods may be as high Grease, high calorie.   Green foods are foods that are only allowed to be sold after they have been checked by various instruments such as food heavy metal content detectors, food pesticide residue quick checkers, etc., to ensure that they meet national food safety labels and their respective restrictions. However, these can only guarantee the safety of the food itself, but cannot guarantee the health of the food. In fact, puffed foods and some alcohol can also apply for green foods, and these are obviously difficult to link with healthy foods. The definition of sugar-free beverages is more subtle. In fact, according to the current standards of sugar-free beverages on the market, sugar-free beverages should be short for 'drinks without added sucrose'. However, no added sucrose does not mean that no other sweeteners are added. Odorous substance. In fact, if you are accustomed to looking at the ingredient list for consumption, it is easy to find that sweeteners such as Acesulfame are written on it. Of course, from an objective point of view, most of these sweeteners were originally intended to meet the sweetness needs of special people such as diabetes, and their safety can be guaranteed. However, there is one thing to say: long-term intake of sweetener beverages, It may also cause harm to the liver and nervous system of the human body.   I need to mention that there are currently clear standard limits for the use of sweeteners in foods, and the relevant agencies will regularly check whether the products on the market are used in violation of regulations. In the actual testing process, considering the wide variety of sweeteners, it is difficult to qualitatively and quantitatively detect, and gas-mass spectrometry is generally used.   As for the 'non-fried, healthier' problem, maybe I can only blame the TV when I was young and it was delayed by advertisements. First of all, non-frying is not without oil, just changing to a cooking form, the final oil content of the food may not necessarily be significantly reduced; Moreover, many foods with high fat and high calories are not caused by frying, simple In other words, the baked potato chips are also puffed foods, and the calories can also be comparable to two and a half bowls of rice.  Of course, this is not to deny non-fried foods, but from a health perspective, consumers should pay more attention to the ingredients and nutritional components of snacks than cooking methods to judge the health of the food in turn.   In addition, many consumers talk about the discoloration of additives. Putting aside the misunderstanding of the concept of additives, this is not incomprehensible. It is true that the use of additives is to a certain extent for better preservation of food or better taste, but the specification is a hard requirement. Basically, each time the relevant department is randomly inspected, it is always found that there are some cases where additives are correctly marked on the packaging according to the regulations, and a large part of them is deliberately 'sloppy' to prevent consumers from choosing other products because of the use of additives. The product. However, if you use it, you can use it, which is no different from defrauding consumers. Finally, I would like to remind you that when buying food, if you want to take into account your health, you need to pay attention not only to the nutrition in the food, but more importantly, the part of the food that is relatively difficult for the human body. In many cases, it contains too much coloring agent. Foods with ingredients such as, flavors, thickeners, etc. are still not our first choice.   All kinds of scientific testing instruments play a great role in food safety testing. Some food label pages make consumers clarify the safety of the food. Although the detector screens out foods with potential safety hazards for us, if we want to eat healthy, eat low-calorie, low-fat, the detection equipment can not be perfect, it is still up to consumers to identify the ingredients of the food. I believe that achieving healthy eating is not a dream under the control of the equipment and consumers themselves.
