With a drastic rise in obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol and blood pressure, as well as other sugar-related illnesses like alzheimer&#8217;s and fatty liver disease, we can no longer consume sugar at the rate we have been. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You only need to look at the Typical Nutritional Information (TNI) printed onto your favourite packet of crisps, trail mix of energy bar to be confronted with how much sugar is put in everything. Granted, a certain amount of sugar is not only good for you, but necessary to preserving your health. Fruits and vegetables cover that Recommended Daily Intake (RDI). What is slowly and silently poisoning all of us is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/blog\/natural-sweeteners-vs-refined-sugar\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">refined sugar<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Refined sugar is added to cheese, fruit juice, most condiments (salad dressing and other sauces), cereal and yoghurt- amongst other things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you find you\u2019re somewhat of a slave to your sweet tooth, consider the 300 fewer calories you\u2019ll consume when you limit your sugar intake. If that isn\u2019t enough to have you reaching for the pot of raw honey instead of the pitcher of maple syrup at breakfast, it\u2019s worth knowing that in recent years, scientists have linked a sugar-heavy diet to dementia and other brain disorders that cause memory loss. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making the decision to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/i-quit-sugar-sarah-wilson\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">curb your sugar intake<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is investing in your health and vitality. Switching from fizzy energy drinks to fresh-pressed juices is a great way to start. If you\u2019re fairly sensible about your sugar intake as it is, your body will thank you for taking the next step. Here are five sugar alternatives you can <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/blog\/fruity-frangipane-tart\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cook and bake<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with (they\u2019ll also taste just as sweet in your cup of tea or coffee):<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/universal-vision-organic-coconut-sugar\"><b>Coconut Sugar<\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the trendiest superfoods to come out of this century, coconut has given dairy- and gluten-intolerant consumers milk, cream and oil to enjoy. The delicious and naturally sweet substitute comes in a block, paste or granulated form for your convenience. Produced from coconut flowers, the sugar is rich in potassium and aids in bone strength<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/red-basket-food-co-erythritol-1kg\"><b>Erythritol<\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sugar alcohol, Erythritol, contains 6% less calories than refined sugar. Before you freak out about the alcoholic component, the sweetener doesn\u2019t affect your insulin, blood sugar, cholesterol or triglyceride levels. Also interesting to know is that Erythritol is naturally found in watermelon, pears and grapes &#8211; fruits that are great antioxidants.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/health-connection-rice-syrup\"><b>Brown Rice Syrup<\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buttery with a distinct nutty flavour, this sugar alternative is the perfect substitute when baking (especially bread and granola bars). By saccharifying enzymes to break down the starches in the rice, all you\u2019re left with is a thick, tasty syrup that\u2019ll transform your confectionary endeavours.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/health-connection-organic-agave-syrup\"><b>Agave Nectar\/Syrup<\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agave is a safe substitute for people with diabetes and an ethical alternative for vegans. Made from the Mexican <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agave tequiliana<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (tequila) plant, the sweetener is about twice as sweet as refined sugar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/naturmade-blackstrap-molasses\"><b>Molasses<\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This versatile sweetener is a welcomed addition to any cooked dish or baked treat. Extremely thick and packed with iron, potassium and calcium, a \u00a0spoonful of this will be all the medicine you need (not really, but it makes for an amazing energy boosting supplement).<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Put the spoonful of sugar down Mary Poppins.
