1. Choose full-fat foods
Always prefer full-fat options. Low-fat products often replace beneficial nutrients with sugar and additives. Full-fat foods keep you fuller for longer and help reduce sugar intake.
2. Drink plenty of water
Soft drinks and fruit juices contain large amounts of sugar. If you don’t drink enough water, add a slice of lemon or opt for sparkling water instead.
3. Read ingredient labels
Many foods hide sugar in their content. Checking labels carefully is important to understand how much sugar you are consuming — even staple foods like bread often contain added sugar.
4. Cook your own meals
When you prepare meals yourself, you can be sure no unnecessary sugar is added. To avoid turning to ready-made foods after a long day, cook in bulk, portion your meals, and store them in the freezer.
