1 WEEK 2 SUGAR In this lesson you will learn: 1. The difference between natural and added sugar 2. Why it is important to limit added sugar. 3. About the added sugar in sodas. 4. How to calculate the teaspoons of sugar in a product. 5. How to make naturally sweetened, low-sugar drinks.

2 Why Sugar is Harmful? Sugar adds calories to foods, without giving any nutritional or healthful benefits. This can lead to weight gain, diabetes, and heart disease. Natural versus Added Sugar Natural sugars are a natural part of sweet foods. These are found in fruit, milk, plain yogurt, raisins, and frozen fruit. Sugar or sugary syrups are added to foods when they are processed. Many packaged foods have added sugar, including chocolate milk, fruit drinks, soda, fruit snacks, candy, Gatorade, and canned fruit. Liquid Candy Have you ever thought of soda as liquid candy? Really, that s all it is! It s hard to think of sodas as candy because we drink them, but they give us just as much sugar, if not more. Drinking soda adds extra calories to your diet without adding any beneficial nutrients like vitamins and minerals. When you drink soda, you usually end up not having room for healthier drinks. Drink soda can often make you feel thirstier. Drinking sugary beverages has been linked to obesity and diabetes in Latino children and adults. =

3 How much sugar is in our drinks? M&Ms candy Nutrition Facts Serving Size: 100 g 3.53 oz Amount Per Serving Calories 490 Calories from Fat 225 %DV Total Fat 25 g Saturated Fat 14 g Cholesterol 35 mg Sodium 70 mg Total Carbohydrate 70 g Dietary Fiber 0 g Sugars 63 g Protein 7 g Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 0% Calcium 0% Iron 0% When you divide 63 g of sugar by 4 = 16 teaspoons of sugar in 1 regular bag of M&Ms 4 grams of sugar = 1 teaspoon of sugar You should try to eat less than 50 g of added sugar per day. Calculating Teaspoons of Sugar Coca Cola 12 oz (355 ml) Can Sugar: 39g Coca Cola 20 oz (590 ml) Bottle Sugars: 65g

4 Arizona Lemon Ice Tea 24 oz Can Sugar: 72g 7-Eleven Super Big Gulp 44 oz (with Pepsi) Sugar: 128g Facts about fruit drinks: It s not just soda that can be bad for you; juice and fruit drinks can be unhealthy too. Juice does not contain the fiber that whole fruits and vegetables have. A lot of juice can provide excessive amounts of calories and may cause weight gain. A lot of juice is also bad for your teeth. Most fruit drinks only contain 5-10% fruit juice. Watch amount of juice you drink- too much can be bad! A ½ cup (4 ounces) of fruit juice equals one serving from the fruit or vegetable group.
