BATON ROUGE - If you have a hard time giving up sugar entirely, consider buying foods that have the sweetness factor and are also nutrient dense.
Some examples include fruits like pineapple, cherries, and strawberries, yogurt, natural peanut butter, and dark chocolate.
Dark chocolate should have at least 70% cacao. It can be tempting to buy foods with artificial sweeteners, but research shows they can actually make you eat more.
Honey and maple syrup can be better alternatives. Moderation is key.
