That soda is a detrimental impact on health and attempts to lose weight already know, probably all. The best drink is water. If you want to lose extra pounds, drink water with lemon.
But few people can ascetic to be satisfied with only pure water. One way or another in our lives, there are other drinks. Some of them you will be surprised – at the sugar content not inferior and even superior to so-called nutritionists soda.
That’s the most basic drink, compared to soda which is a much lesser evil.
Fruit juice
This is the first drink that is chosen by those who decide to abandon sweet drinks. And too bad, because this is a weak replacement. If fruits are rich in fiber, the juice of them don’t. Even if it is completely natural and without sweeteners, the concentration of sugar remains quite high: a glass of grape juice, for example, contains 36 grams of a white enemy, and Apple — 31 grams.
Liquid fruit yogurt
It would seem that yogurt with added fruit — preplenary product. However, a standard serving of yogurt contains about 25 grams of sugars of different origin: glucose, fructose, fruit puree, and juice. So it is better to substitute the dessert (namely, it is this product) yogurt or yogurt with no fillers.
Can’t drink kefir — add to it chopped in a blender with berries, banana, and out the same yogurt but without the impact of store dose of sugar.
Cold store tea
The tea itself is a healthy drink that contains a lot of antioxidants. But store-bought sweetened teas contain an average of 30 grams of sugar.
Love teas — don’t be lazy and brew it yourself, without sugar. However, the most useful tea is drunk no later than 30 minutes after brewing.
Coconut water
It is very rich in electrolytes that allow drinking half-liters to provide the daily requirement of potassium. However, pay attention to the composition, if you buy it in the store: a bag can contain up to 30 grams of sugar if you are supplements. Better buy natural coconut water without sweeteners. For those who are accustomed to sweets, she seems sweet enough, but if sugar is missing from your diet, then coconut water your buds will be felt in all the brightness of her taste.
Lactose-free milk
Soy, almond, oat, rice milk with no additional “accessories” has a very specific, not all pleasant taste. To make it more attractive, the manufacturers made variations with syrups and additives. Being fond of such novelties, you drink “sugar bomb”.
Coffee drinks
Marshmallows, cream, syrups, sprinkles, and other Goodies increase the caloric value of coffee. For example, a large chocolate mocha from Starbucks will give you 67 grams of sugar, and a simple vanilla latte medium size — 35.
Love coffee drinks? Then order an Americano or cappuccino and ask to put twice less sugar.
Cocoa
As natural cocoa taste is bitter, to defeat bitterness, bartenders add a loading dose of sugar, why cocoa becomes more of a dessert than a drink. But if on top to make a cap of whipped cream, then the result is 400 calories and 43 grams of sugar — more than Cola in the bottle.
