Healthy Diet: Nutrition Facts

Angie Placeres, Registered Dietitian with Baptist Health South Florida, says about food labels you have to look at the whole label, but one of the most important things is to look at the serving size, because that will tell you per serving how many calories there are. She also explains cholesterol, saturated and trans fat should be as low as possible, because those tend to increase heart disease risks.
