Over the years, people across the world have become conscious about what they consume daily to keep themselves healthy and fit. Some people have a rigorous way to achieve their goals, including extreme diets, workouts, watching every calorie they intake, and much more. While watching what you eat and some physical activity are much needed for the body, one does not need to put their body under a lot of stress to achieve the goal.

During an interview, Food Pharmer Revant Himatsingka revealed that at a very young age, he loved eating junk food, adding that the companies he calls out today were the companies he had been eating food from. He said,
The first thing we think about is taste, followed by price. We don’t consider calories, protein, or sugar. 99% of people are not health conscious. Even the other 1% are consuming harmful things, believing them to be healthy.
He explained that he believes that if people are able to read and understand the food label, they can easily determine what’s healthy and what’s not. The Food Pharmer noted that learning to read a food label is an essential skill everyone should know.
