But every time you sip your coffee or take a bite of that cake, something pinches you from within. You want to reduce your added sugar intake, but end up giving in to sweet cravings!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t worry &#8211; we have a solution to reduce sugar intake. It is essential to monitor your sugar consumption to avoid diabetic illnesses and lead a healthy life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The truth about added sugar\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth about added sugar is that it can contribute to health problems like weight gain, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. Excess sugar is stored as fat in the body, which can lead to weight gain. Being overweight increases the risk of health problems. It can also damage blood vessels, which can lead to plaque buildup and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. Free sugars added to foods and drinks provide calories but no nutritional value.

Or is it soda or junk food? Whatever it is, you need to find the primary source of added sugar and work on reducing it. For instance, you may add a lot of sugar to your coffee or eat a lot of bread and cookies throughout the day. These are your sources of added sugar. Determine why your sugar intake is increased and then aim to reduce it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Go slow:<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You cannot give up on sugar within a day. Having too much sugar is a habit, and breaking that habit will take time. Give yourself some time. Then, once you have identified your primary sources of added sugar, start cutting down. For example, if you add three teaspoons of sugar to your tea or coffee, reduce it to two, then gradually add one.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Read labels:<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Processed foods like packaged cakes, candies, and snacks are full of added sugar. Even the so-called healthy, \u2018low fat\u2019 or \u2018diet\u2019 foods may contain added sugar. Sugar is often hidden under scientific names on food labels. Look for words like sucrose, maltose, dextrose, fructose, glucose, lactose, galactose, etc. Make the habit of reading labels and lessening sugar-loaded foods and drinks in your diet.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Eat more real foods:<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you find yourself eating a lot of junk food throughout the day? It\u2019s time to switch to real foods. Prepare meals and replace chips with healthier foods like nuts and fruits for snacking. Do this for a month, and you shall notice that your sugar intake decreases drastically.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Go to bed early:<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many people crave something sweet after dinner.
