The label on the back of the package tells you almost everything — if you know how to read it. This short, practical course walks through the Nutrition Facts panel: why serving size changes everything, the nutrients to watch, how to use %Daily Value with the simple 5/20 rule, how to read the ingredients list and see through front-of-pack claims, and finally how to compare two products head to head. Anchored on the US label, with notes on how other countries differ.
