Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Deceptive Food Package Health Claims The promotional health claims found on the front sides of food packaging bear little or no relation to the actual nutritional value of the product within. This the conclusion of researchers at SUNY’s Upstate Medical University at Syracuse. The study involved 597 items representing 11 categories of the most commonly purchased foods and beverages. For each, the health claims made on the front of the product’s packaging were compared with the actual health value of the contents as determined by critical analysis of the package nutrition label. The data analysis showed no consistent relationship between the health claims heralded on the front of packaging with the actual nutritional value of the product for the most commonly purchased food items. The claims were only accurate for fruits, vegetables, and fats and oils. The greatest deviations between claims and actual nutritional value occurred for snacks and sweets, sugars, grains, protein foods, and condiments. The bottom line: buyer beware. Read the actual nutritional labels and take the claims on the packaging with a ton of salt since most are actually BS. https://journals.stfm.org/primer/2025/venkatesh-2024-0129/ #labeling #healthclaims #foods #nutrition"
