Excess sugar consumption is associated with adverse health effects, including obesity, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer. Here are some ways to lower your intake: 1) Stick with whole foods at breakfast and drink water or unsweetened coffee or tea. 2) Check food labels for added sugars like “high-fructose corn syrup,” “agave,” and “honey”. 3) Eat whole fruit for fibre, vitamins, and other nutrients. 4) Go for Greek yogurt with fruit, or a piece of dark chocolate for dessert. 5) Use natural sweeteners like Stevia and keep high-sugar, highly processed junk food out of the house to limit temptation.
