Today I watched an past webinar about Weightloss and Food. These can be viewed at http://www.maximizedliving.com. It was a big eye opener to review somethings. The topic today is Sugar because it's something that not a lot of us look for when we read food labels at the grocery store. Did you know that in majority of the items you look at in the grocery store there is sugar or high fructose corn syrup (a form of sugar) in them?
Why is this a big deal? Well if you're trying to lose weight you know you should be avoiding sugars. This is not limited to chocolates, bakery goods and just candy in general. Look at the labels of the foods you are eating. The peanut butter that I "oh so love so much" Skippy has sugar in it. It's something that I will have to cute bac on. Even fruits have natural sugars in it, for example apples and pears. If you want an apple try a Granny Smith Apple or if you really crave fruits go for the berries, less sugar.
While watching the video there was an interesting statement the doctors said. "The longer the ingredients list the more likely it's NOT GOOD for you." Also they said, "If it's not something you would normally put in your pantry then it's probably NOT GOOD for you." Good statements. A lot of things we read off the back doesn't make sense or we have no idea what it means.
