This is confusing, though, because they post lots of conflicting info While this is a start, Vinnie does not think this is enough Much sugar comes from cakes, cookies, sports drinks, sodas, etc. Just one can of coke goes over this! Vanilla yogurt hits 6 teaspoons July 2018, labels will be more accurate AVOIDING CARBPHOBIA You do not need to freak out about all foods with some amount of carbs For example, if you eat a tomato, you are fine! However, if you eat a ton of tomato sauce, it gets carbier Can be bad for people with A1C problems Type 2 diabetes and such You are concentrating the sugar when you turn it into a puree Still not nearly as bad as some other foods with added sugars Don't freak out about what you eat -- as long as it is NSNG, you're on the right path What Vinnie always says, "nobody ever got fat from just eating fruit" EAT YOUR BROCCOLI Can't take all food at face value For example, if you are eating corn on a cob it's certainly different from puree corn, popcorn, and corn chips It is ok to top your zucchini pasta with some tomato sauce!
