Let’s talk about sugar. This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. It seems like foods with a high sugar content are the cheapest and easiest on the go snacks. Unfortunately, too much sugar can lead to heart disease, type two diabetes, obesity, and a ton of other health problems. The best way to decrease sugar intake when you are on the go is to pack ahead. Instead of reaching for a bowl of cereal in the morning, try hard boiling a couple of eggs the night before. You will find that the protein in the eggs will give you more long-lasting energy than the sugar in the cereal. Also, instead of grabbing a candy bar for an afternoon snack, pack a couple of bags of vegetables and fruit. Although fruit contains sugar, natural sugar is healthier than processed.
