At best, nutrition labels are moderately informative, but they can
also be hopelessly confusing, or, at the worst, misleading. How
high is "high"? Did you know that there are no official guidelines
for labeling something as "Low-Carb?"

common nutritional terms that are used - high, low-carb,
low-sodium, BPA-free, non-GMO, enriched, and fortified - with a
short description of what they mean, and whether they're important
to pay attention to. As additional items arrive on grocery store
shelves with the latest popular label, the more clarity the
better.
