Sugar

[adioz]

I'm trying to keep my intake of sugars low, however lack of sugar is known to mess with your mood.. any suggestions for healthy snacks (with sugar) to include in a diet? I know fruit is good, but some also have many grams of carbs.

sugar and healthy don't mix.

substitute sugar with things like s/f soda, crystal light, splenda etc.

Just so you know Sugar=Carbs

Just so you know Sugar=Carbs

you meant fruit=sugar right?

[jman98z24]

No, he meant Sugar is a form of carb, ie High Glycemic Carb

So, in summary

fruit = sugar = high GI carbs = not good for diet (unless PWO with protein)

Appreciate the feedback... I do like and use splenda, guess I could use a lot more!..

[jman98z24]

Splenda is great, I love to put it in my oats with some cinnamon(sp?).

Sugar in the morning with fruit and PWO only. The only other time I have any sugar is at night because its in my cottage cheese but only 2gs

[jman98z24]

The only time I have sugar is PWO as well, it is acutally dextrose, but that is basically the same as sugar.
