Answers:
the most important for overall health is trans fat (you should keep those to as close to zero as possible)
If you're trying to lose weight (i!.e!. fat) you should look at sugar and fat content!. Also you want to limit your overall carbs (or better yet, only eat carbs from fruits and whole grains)!.
You should read the ingredients and refrain buying items where HFCS (High Fructose Corn syrup) is one of the first ingredients!.
One note: the % are based on a USRDA (U!.S!. Recommended Daily Allowance) for a 2000 calorie diet!. I'd take the % for carbs and fat and try to stay <50% for the day!. Take the protein % and at least double it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
