10 unexpected products, which add sugar
Ketchup and ketchup that it might be dangerous? .. Ketchup, as well as other ready-made sauces, contains so much sugar that under any diet can not eat it. < Website has collected some more products to mind quite normal and even recommended in the diet, in which manufacturers stuffed as much sugar as they could.
1. Cereal noodles h2> With today's dynamic pace of life we do not always find the time for the morning to prepare your own full breakfast believing that this mess is healthy and useful alternative. Unfortunately no. And if 30 years ago, it contained about 10 grams of sugar per 100 grams of product, which is certainly not too little, but today the figure is an average of 17 grams.
2. Whole wheat bread h2> The interest in healthy eating leads to an increase in demand for the relevant products. And if you think that the whole wheat bread is much more useful than their white fellow from refined flour, the numbers suggest otherwise. The sugar content of this bread about 4 grams, whereas previously it was exactly 2 times less.
3. Yoghurt h2> Another category of products that we believe diet is all kinds of yogurt. A handful of corn flakes, filled with drinking yogurt - is this not your usual breakfast? However, this breakfast is not only able to cover the daily rate of sugar, but also damaging to the entire hormonal system due to a sharp release of insulin. As many as 8 teaspoons a small bottle of yogurt - too high for healthy and dietetic foods.
4. Low-fat products h2> From yogurt, curds and other foods with reduced fat, we usually do not expect a dirty trick and happily include in your diet. And in vain. Reduced-fat dairy products makes them less appealing to our taste buds. To recreate the taste and texture of your favorite treats, manufacturers increase the content of others, is not always beneficial, ingredients, including sugar. Note that ingredient often is the second or third in the list.
5. Muesli h2> Advertising media actively convince us to start the day with an easy-to-prepare and ready-made breakfast such useful. Meanwhile, the amount of sugar in the flakes and muesli just rolls over and can be up to 50% of the total weight. And in the production, which is positioned as a child, these figures are the highest. By the way, the salt content of these products is also quite large, and the caloric value is comparable with donuts and chocolate.
6. Juice h2> Many of us like to freshen up a glass of cool fruit juice, thinking that in this way we are making variety in your diet, and fill the body with vitamins, but it is not. The packaged juices not only a large number of artificial colors or preservatives, and sugars. Nutritionists argue regularly, whether there is a real benefit from juices or better to eat the whole fruit, not only received vitamins and minerals, and fiber. In one of their opinions converge: if you want to drink a really useful juice - do it yourself.
7. Carbonated drinks' sugar » h2> Manufacturers carbonated drinks carefully monitor changes in consumer tastes and trends in global supply. That is why in recent years we are increasingly able to find on the shelves of drinks labeled «light» or «zero», meaning that the sugar content is reduced or absent. One well-known company even recently released its popular drink with stevia useful, but unfortunately, this is another trick. The sugar content of soda remains dangerously high (about 9 tablespoons per cup), but now masked for new consumer titles.
8. Ready-made sauces h2> It is possible, many are now wondering why in the seemingly savory sauces to add sugar. However, as we said, this ingredient not only improves the taste, but also, like salt, preservative acts. Thus, in the conventional finished ketchup sugar content up to 15 grams, and barbecue sauce - 30 grams in each standard packaging. Add sugar and also in mayonnaise and low-fat salad dressings. That is why we recommend to cook the sauce itself. Home-made mayonnaise or ketchup, or adjika tkemali. All this is much tastier and healthier purchased analogues.
9. Sausages h2> Despite the fact that educational institutions include, for example, hot dogs in the diet of schoolchildren, talk about the benefits of these products, especially for the child's body, unfortunately, is not necessary. In addition to the high fat content, the presence of transgenic soy and monosodium glutamate - an ingredient, the debate about the dangers that arise often enough - in the composition of sausages as there is quite a lot of sugar, an average of 20 teaspoons per kilogram of product.
10. How to read a label? H2> At the moment, there are about 54 names, indicating the sugar in food. The most common - it's all ending in "-oza": sucrose, maltose, glucose and so on. Also, quite often you can find on the label syrup, molasses and corn syrup. They are also a popular sugar substitute in the food industry. When reading labels at the store, do not forget that the closer to the top of the ingredient list, the higher its content.
