Do you think you eat pretty healthy and yet you continue to have weight problems, joint inflammation, or other health issues? It is possible you are consuming hidden sugars that are piling up and wreaking havoc on your system.
There are over 50, yes FIFTY, different names for sugar that you can find on product packaging. Here is a pretty comprehensive list, though I am sure there are more added on a regular basis ...
So now I have a challenge for you. Go into your pantry or fridge and pick out something you think is fairly healthy or that you don't think would contain sugar. Turn it around and compare the ingredients to this list. Are you consuming more sugar that you thought?
Review the ingredient lists of all the food you have in your house and get rid of anything with any form of sugar in the first 3 ingredients. When you are at the grocery store make sure the scan labels before tossing "healthy" items into your cart!! As an added tip, the following "healthy" items may be less "healthy" than you think: peanut butter, yogurt, and granola; make sure to check yours!!
