Task description: Today I finished my reading labels activity. We had to read food labels and record what each labels mean.
Fibre: Even though your body can’t digest fibre, it helps keep your digestive system healthy and makes you feel full, so you don’t overeat.
Sugars: Even though your body can’t digest fibre, it helps keep your digestive system healthy and makes you feel full, so you don’t overeat.
Protein: Protein is very good for your body it helps it to be stronger.
Vitamin and minerals: Each vitamin and mineral helps your body in a different way. For example, calcium makes your bones strong, and Vitamin C helps your body fight off colds.
Percent Daily value : This helps you understand if you’re getting too much or too little of a nutrient. If the %DV is 5% or lower, it means the food is low in that nutrient. If it’s 20% or higher, it means the food is high in that nutrient.
