We frequently hear news of people being scammed in both the real and the virtual world of the internet. Savvy people would have avoided the traps immediately but why are there still victims being scammed over and over again. The common news like “get rich quick schemes”, “magical stones with healing properties”, “huge inheritance schemes that require you to be their middleman”…etc are heard of all the time, but yet there are still victims falling for the same traps over and over again.

But again some people may think that drinking fruit juice everyday is the same as consuming fruits. This assumption has caused misinformation and many people are confused between facts and myths. Are you one of them? Continue reading "Fruit Juice – The myths, the facts and tips."

Labeling was to help people make better nutrition choices. However, many people are still ignorant on the usefulness of this information after so many years. This is a guide to advice you on what to take note and what you can ignore on the labels. Continue reading "What You Need To Know About Nutrition Labels"
