These days, sugar is everywhere—and tricky to avoid. But before you purge your pantry, get sweet on this new strategy.
We’re not going to sugarcoat it for you: Our world is sweeter than ever. The average American teen consumes approximately 32 teaspoons of sugar daily, which is more than five times the American Heart Association’s recommended limit of six teaspoons. Basically, we’re all official residents of Sugar Land, USA.
But is sugar really “bad” for you? In moderation, no. However, a constant influx of excess sugar *can* mean bad news for your body—setting you up for super serious health issues in the long -term such as diabetes, obesity, depression and even cancer. (Not to mention the crazy mood swings hanger and fatigue that to go hand in hand whack -of- blood sugar levels.) And when you’re tired and cranky, who doesn’t want to reach for another Oreo?
With our smart sugar tips, we’ll help you start to control those craving rather than let your craving control you...
