We all have a favorite sugary treat that we like to eat whenever we get a chance, but eating too much sugar isn’t good for anyone’s health. If you’ve been thinking about ways to eat less sugar so you can enjoy an occasional treat without guilt, here are some tricks that can help you with that.

Lemon Water

First thing in the morning, drink some warm lemon water that will help regulate blood sugar and prevent sugar cravings throughout the day. Avoiding sweets is so much easier when your body doesn’t remind you that you need something sweet several times during the day, and lemon water can help a lot with that.

Frozen Fruit

Replace ice cream with smoothies made from frozen fruit and you’ll have a delicious and healthy snack whenever you want. When your freezer is stocked up with frozen bananas, berries, peaches, and other fruits, it’s so easy to make smoothies that resemble ice cream!

Stevia

Replace sugar in coffee or tea with stevia, a plant-based sweetener that doesn’t affect your blood sugar levels. It may seem like a small step, but each of these new habits will help reduce your cravings for sugar in the long run, making it easier to make healthier choices on a daily basis.
