Food Lableing

I have a problem with misleading food lables on nutrician. Why are so many foods labled as healthy when they are full of sugar. I'm diabetic and it frustrates me when I'm trying to shop for appropriate foods. For example many products contain more than 50gms of sugar per 100gms and they have the cheek to call that healthy food. What do you think?.

There is also apparently some dodgy loop hole regarding labelling - don't quote me, but I think if it is less than 5% of the total contents they aren't obliged to put it in the label. This allows all sorts of additives, flavours, etc to be added.
