Choose fruit if you are craving sugar. While fruit contains sugar, it is an unprocessed sugar that is much better for you than the refined, processed sugars that you find in baked desserts and fruit juices made from concentrate. When a sugar craving comes on, reach for a piece of fruit instead of a doughnut. Sweet potatoes are another great replacement for sugary foods and they are extremely filling and rich in antioxidants. Swap your standard potato for a sweet one to satisfy your sweet tooth and fill up your tummy. Blend plain yoghurt with frozen fruit to create a homemade sorbet-like dessert that wont add unhealthy sugar to your diet and can satisfy your sweet tooth.
