How To Avoid Added and Refined Sugars

Facebook0Tweet0Pin0LinkedIn0

When reading food labels, it’s helpful to know how to decipher which ingredients are sugar. While most sugars are refined, some are unrefined (which typically means the sugar retains some minerals). The most nutrient-dense unrefined sugar is molasses, but date sugar, maple syrup, honey and coconut palm sugar also contain nutrients. It is also common for many manufactured products to contain more than one form of sugar. The following label ingredients are all forms of sugar:
