Yes its true!
We are lied to on a daily basis about the foods we eat. Food manufacturers use the latest buzz words to sell their foods, words like "whole" "grains" "organic"...be suspicious when you reach for a product, my philosophy is KNOW WHAT YOU ARE EATING. Food is health and if you put junk in your body regularly you will feel and look like junk...
