Tips & Warnings

• Try to change your diet slowly, children won't see such a big difference in their food content if you do it slowly. Often just choosing a different brand at the supermarket could mean you are avoiding dangerous additives such as MSG.
• Did you know that certain food additives are banned in some countries due to the adverse health effects they cause?
