November 9th I talked a little about how sugar intake, especially in significant quantities, can impact your health and levels of pain. I read something this morning I wanted to share with you from Dr. Joseph Mercola: - Added Sugars Represent 17 Percent of the Average US Diet Among added sugars, 43 percent come from sweetened beverages, which are processed differently than are those consumed in solid form. Intake of sugars in all forms makes up 38 percent of the typical US diet. The following nine foods all have more sugar than a Krispy Kreme doughnut (which, for comparison, contains 10 grams of sugar): Luna bar: 11 grams of sugar Grande Starbucks latte: 17 grams Subway 6 sweet onion teriyaki chicken sandwich: 17 grams Tropicana orange juice, 8 ounces: 22 grams Yoplait original yogurt: 27 grams Vitamin Water, 20 ounces: 33 grams Sprinkles red velvet cupcake: 45 grams California Pizza Kitchen Thai chicken salad: 45 grams Odwalla superfood smoothie, 12 ounces: 50 grams
