"This food has 100% of the RDA for Vitamin C." or "11 Vitamins and Minerals!"  It's tempting to look at these marketing ploys on packages and think, 'Wow, this is great for my child!'  Remember though, that most packaged food is not REAL food.  It may have some good things, but remember to read the label and see what else is in there - added sugars, artificial ingredients, enriched flour, etc. Just because there is 100% of the RDA for vitamin C, it's not the same as eating the unprocessed REAL food, which has all the enzymes, phytonutrients, and minerals that work synergistically with vitamin C in the body.
