Added sugars are generally used to increase the palatability of foods that might otherwise be be deemed not as tasty by American standards. However, while okay in moderation, too many added sugars in the diet have been linked with a laundry list of preventable chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes and obesity. Furthermore, one can reduce their tolerance to added sugars by mindfully replacing them with foods containing naturally occurring sugars, like fruits and dairy products. As an added benefit, fruits contain fiber which helps keep one fuller for longer, thus reducing the desire to reach for a second or third helping of highly processed, calorically empty, sweets. Win-win!
