Dieters getting Duped
#1
Most of us read the labels on packages to see how many calories foods contain and such. Apparently those labels aren't as accurate as they are being claimed to be.

According to a new study published in the Journal of the American Diabetic Association, prepared foods may contain an average of 8% more calories than their package labels own up to and restaurant meals may contain a whopping 18% more. Worse still, as far as Food and Drug Administration regulations are concerned, that's perfectly O.K.

So much for that plan!

People who are trying to lose weight or reduce their cholesterol do pay more attention.
