[QUOTE="trueblue, post: 682449, member: 117202"] I am pretty sure I saw on here that someone said when looking at nutrition labels to not go by the what tuns to sugar part under carbs and that ALL carbs turn to sugar. Is that true? If so how do the food companies get away with making out that their foods have a lot less sugar in them than what they actually would have,,,at best its misleading? Has it got anything to do with how quickly it turns to sugar. I have noticed in foods that often get described as healthy eg porridge that there will often be a massive difference say like ,,, carbs 55g of which turns to suagr 6g,,, leading you to think this isn't going to be bad.. whereas the foods you would expect like sweets etc its pretty much like for like Is a lower which turns to sugar really helpful if it all turns to sugar regardless ?? Hopefully someone can explain the science behind the label as I am really curious to know now what I am eating these days. [/QUOTE]
