Ditch candy; get dates
Americans eat around three pounds of sugar a week. Imagine seeing that on a table, all at once. It would probably have you rethinking many of your food choices. It’s much more than nutritionists recommend. But, we all know the undeniable call of a sweet tooth. Next time you want something chewy and sweet, grab a few dates (just a few). One has around four grams of sugar (a Mars Bar has 20 grams), and if you have a few, you’ll get a good serving of fiber, as well as potassium and magnesium.
