I saw on a website somewhere, "Muffins are an excuse to eat cake for breakfast."

WHO IS GOING TO CUT A MUFFIN INTO 1/3....THAT IS AWEFUL.

The only thing I can focus on this video is the flood that's happening outside of her window.

In my country (and I think maybe for all EU countries) the nutrition info is always for 100 grams, so essentially it's a percentage. It's much better that way, as you can much more easily compare it to other foods and you are never tricked. Most single serving items also offer the serving size (which is always the whole thing) information.

Recently there's been youtubers collaborating with lean cuisines and putting it out there that its healthy, easily accessible and such. The first person who I immediately thought of was you! I had a light bulb in my head with you saying "look at the ingredients, amount of fat, sodium sugar and such!" This video is so amazingly organized and educational :)

Muffins are claimed to be healthy in America?? Where I come from, muffins are dessert

Good video overall, however I'd like to point out a few things. First, people often think having sodium in your diet is a bad thing. While too much sodium can lead to issues such as high BP, sodium is a necessary mineral. I would advise relatively healthy people to be more concerned with the amount of added sugar in their food versus the amount of sodium, unless you have a health condition where you'd need to monitor your sodium. Sodium is important for many bodily functions, such as water retention and the sodium-potassium pump that maintains proper nerve impulses. Also, 4 g of fibre in that little packaged meal isn't going to do wonders for your health, but it sure is a decent amount. 100g of greens such as broccoli only have about 3g of fibre anyway, and I'm sure that packaged meal contains much less than 100g of broccoli. Lastly, I want to point out that people are sometimes way too caught up in counting calories, carbs, fats, etc. Unless you are on a diet or, again, have a particular condition in which one of these macronutrients need to be watched, I wouldn't stress over it. We all need carbs, fats, and proteins to be healthy! Don't be fooled into thinking that avoiding carbs (energy) and fats (oils, omega-3's, and unsaturated fats) is the best thing you can do for your body!

There is no reason anyone should be eating Jif. they add sugar and corn syrup to peanut butter. The only thing that should ever be added to peanut butter is salt, IF THAT. Peanut butter by itself is delicious. I will never understand how someone can eat peanut butter with corn syrup and sugar in it.

Wow, you really opened my eyes with this video! I tend to look at the ingredient list whenever I shop but some things - like salads, trail mixes etc. I just never bother checking because I always think that it's "obviously" healthy. Thanks for a good video!

[AllDaGoodUsernamesWereTaken]

"Salad's always healthy right? WRONG"
😂👌

[DevinAK]

They call it trail mix for a reason. It's great to have a high calorie snack on a hike.

Packet smoothie? I've never heard of such a thing. I love making a smoothie with real fruit.

How to tell this is filmed in Florida:
1.) the hurricane happening outside the window
2.) PUBLIX

[KnownAsStrang]

I can tell this video was shot when you lived back in Florida not only because of the background but the "Publix" brand yogurt haha. They sure don't have any of those in Cali

[adriiisoccer]

I love this. So many of us have gotten this wrong at some point. I'm glad you touched on the added carbs for reduced fat/fat free products. You are super knowledgeable and your videos are enjoyable to watch! It really shows that you are more concerned about health rather than just "looking fit" which is truly admirable. (:

I love how you point out natural sugar vs. added sugar! I always try to explain that to people. I love your videos so much!

[TheMusiclover]

Won't eat a peanut butter that has more than 2 ingredients, peanuts, salt. Idk why there's sugar in everything, Syrups and jellies too, why is their corn syrup in some maple syrups, its literally a sweetener! Also the amount of people who'll use something like splenda without realizing what's in it, if you must just use white sugar, just use white sugar!

That's the only channel, out of many I tried to watch, that is really informative. No bullsh*t, no pretense to give strict lessons, just someone who clearly has done some research trying to spread infos about healthy choices and meals. I wonder why you have so few subscribers, this should be one of the most viewed youtube channels. Keep the hard work up!

OMG this is so true, I noticed the same when I used to drink Naked smoothies and thought they were good for me, then I read the label carefully and found out there were two serving in the bottle wih more than 30 g sugar each, and I used to drink them all thinking the whole bottle is one serving. It was shocking to know that not all advertised healthy food are healthy :(
