Beware of sugar in drinks
Soft drinks and carbonated drinks usually have a very high amount of sugar. Furthermore, being liquid we do not realize the grams of sugar we are consuming. To give you an idea, a cola can have up to 17 tablespoons of sugar, and you can drink several in one day!
Avoid sweets and industrial bakery
Cakes, cookies and sandwiches have a large amount of sugar. While this is pretty obvious advice, avoiding them will not only help you reduce your sugar intake, it will also help you lead a healthier diet.
Pay attention to what you eat outside the home
Even if at the beginning you can think of choosing a healthy dish, like a salad, for example, you have to pay attention to the ingredients so as not to consume more sugar than you should. Sauces that include many salads can contain several unhealthy ingredients (including sugar) and end up ruining your intention to eat healthily.
Reduce the quantities little by little
Giving up sugar completely overnight can be a difficult task, as our palate has atrophied from so many years of indiscriminate sugar consumption. However, we can gradually reduce the amount we add to coffee, for example, to accustom our palate to the flavors of real food.
