Monday " Mention"... Environmental Working Group


     The Environmental Working group had developed a data base you can access on your computer or phone to help with making healthier options when shopping at the grocery store. There are catagories to pick from and you put your product in their data base you they will give you a score based on different factors. So if you have a concern with a particular product in your cabinet and wondering if it's a healthy choice, put it in the data base and see the results. It's nice to have a tool that helps cut down on some of the confusion and buzz words when trying to pick and choose foods that will nourish our bodies.

EWG's Food Scores just took the work out of grocery shopping for me!: EWG's Food Scores rates more than 80,000 foods in a simple, searchable online format to empower people to shop smarter and eat healthier. Each item in the database is scored based on three factors: nutrition, ingredient concerns and degree of processing. a href='http://ewg.org/foodscores/'Check it out and see how your favorite foods score./a
