Many nutritionist view sugar as an evil substance to stay away from, at all costs. There is a lot of accuracy in this belief. Sugar can be highly addictive, and is a contributing factor in increased belly fat. Reducing or removing it from your daily diet can be a real challenge, especially at the beginning. Sugar is in a lot of processed foods to add flavor, so clean eating is a great way to start. Vegetables and whole fruits have a naturally sweet flavor, and may relieve that urge for sugar. Begin to reduce any sugar you add to coffee or tea, and reduce the packaged fruit juices you drink.
You'll find over time, that your ‘taste’ for sugar reduces!
