Stop reading the claims.
Start reading the chemistry.
When you look at an ingredients list, you are not just checking what is present.
You are understanding why it is there.
Here is a deeper look at what the slides above are really showing.
1. The soya chaap paradox
Many packaged “soya” products in India are actually refined wheat products.
If a label lists Refined Wheat Flour (70%) and Soya Flour (15%), then nutritionally, you are eating a gluten-heavy refined carbohydrate, not a high-protein food.
Always check ingredient order and percentages.
2. Sugar has many names
Sugar is rarely written as just “sugar.”
It often appears as:
• High fructose corn syrup, rice syrup, agave nectar
• Glucose, sucrose, dextrose, maltose
• Fruit juice concentrate, barley malt
All of these increase sugar load and, when consumed regularly, can contribute to chronic inflammation.
3. The first-three rule
Ingredients are listed in descending order of quantity.
The first three ingredients usually make up most of the product.
If refined starches, sugars, or unfamiliar additives dominate the top of the list, the food should be treated as an occasional indulgence, not a daily staple.
This is not about fear.
It is not about banning foods.
It is about awareness on most days.
Cancer risk does not develop overnight.
It builds silently through repeated choices over years.
Read labels.
Reduce long-term risk.
Share this with someone you want to protect.
