We are kicking the candy, the cookies, the other sweet stuff, kicking it right to the curb. Its no surprise cutting back on sugar can make you healthier, but you know its not easier to do. Joining us now, is dr. Taylor wallace. Thank you for being here. Weve been talking about processed sugars and the sugar that we add with our teaspoons. But what about foods with natural sugars, like fruits and veggies . Is that better than added sugar . Like i always say, nutrition is not simple. So the answer is yes and no. Sugar is sugar. So whether its sugar from a fruit or soda, your body processes that in the same way. Fruits and vegetables have a lot less sugar. What you have to remember, when you consume a whole fruit, it takes a while for your body to break down that fruit. So the s slower than when you drink a soda and it all hits your system. Thats clinically relevant for health. So its the rate of absorption . Right. What are the best fruits and veggies to eat to satisfy your craving but keep your intake under control . Less than 6 of us get enough fruits and vegetables in their diet. If you are a healthy individual and walk into the Grocery Store and choose any type of fruit or vegetable, two thumbs up to you. If youre diabetic and youre watching sugar levels, you might want to choose broccoli or kale. Theres different types of fruits and vegetables that have a lower glycemic index, but are higher in dietary fibers. Those have sugar in them . Some, but not all of it gets absorbed. A lot of people are in a veggies, does that make it healthier to consume . No t basically has the same nutrients contents. What you have to keep in mind, youre losing a lot of the dietary fiber. So when you press your juice, add some pulp back for maximum health benefits. What about natural noofoods, which ones should we try to avoid . Look, again, its not about avoiding any particular fruit or vegetable . You have to be a savvy consumer. Just because something is labelled or marketed as natural or organic, doesnt necessarily mean that its healthy. So you really have to watch your diet, watch your calories, and watch how much total Carbohydrate Intake you have for the day. Its not just about added sugars. If you are eating white bread, your about the is going to convert that to sugar, which is just as bad. Is it better to taking bad foods out, or adding good foods to your diet . The bottom line is, its more important to add foods that you like to your diet. So i love broccoli, i try to add that several times a week to all of my culinary creations. People really dont respond well when you tell them to take certain foods out or eliminate certain categories of food. Those diets never work in the long run. So choosing foods that you like that are more Healthy Options can benefit in the longterm. Dr. Wallace, thank you. Thank you. Fascinating.
