Manage Your Sugar Cravings

Sugar is everywhere! It's important to differentiate between naturally occurring sugars & added sugars and take steps to minimise ADDED sugars from your diet.Use the following tips to keep our sugar cravings in check:1. Increase Awareness- pay attention to food labels & limit foods with high amounts of added sugars.2. Focus on what you can ADD to the meal to help you feel more full & satisfied. PROTEIN & Fiber will satisfy you more- leaving you feeling less likely to need to grab those high sugary foods.3. Balance meals with healthy carbohydrates & fats. Including a good balance of these macronutrients in your meals will help you feel more full & satisfied.4. Improve sleep & manage stress. Low or poor quality sleep will leave you feeling low energy during the day- we are more likely to turn to quick energy foods. Look for ways to minimize your stress & for healthy ways to manage it, such as exercise. 5. Be mindful & intentional with your food choices. It isn't  realistic to say I will never eat sugar containing foods;  On occasion, slow down enjoy it;  Eat it & move on- no guilt! Casey is a Registered Dietitian & Certified Personal Trainer.
