10 Popular Foods and Drinks High in Sugar
Smoothies
For many people, smoothies represent an efficient shortcut to a healthy diet. But drinking smoothies is not always beneficial for your health.
That’s because many such beverages found in stores come in quite large sizes and are usually sweetened with fruit juice, maple syrup or even ice cream. This can double or even triple their already existing natural sugar content to the point you end up consuming over 90 grams in a single serving.
Captain’s tip: Focus on adding more green vegetables like kale, spinach into your smoothie to get more antioxidants and fiber instead of sugar.
