Here are some interesting facts about sugar<\/a>:\"sugar\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2022 For both men and women, as income goes up, sugar consumption goes down and as age goes up, sugar consumption goes down. For kids, the story is different. They tend to eat and drink more sugar as they get older, and there aren\u2019t big differences based on income.
\nWhen totaled up, more of our added sugars come from foods than beverages<\/a>, but the sugars in our beverages may prevent weight management. Why? Because studies show that liquid calories<\/a> may not be \u201cseen\u201d or \u201cregistered\u201d by the human body and thus may not contribute to satiety. As a consequence, we tend to over-consume liquid calories which leads to weight gain. So to cut back on added sugars, start by cutting out sugar-sweetened beverages!<\/p>\n

\n\u2022 table sugar
\n\u2022 brown sugar
\n\u2022 corn syrup
\n\u2022 dextrose
