Salad Dressing
If you’re eating salad as part of your healthy eating journey, adding salad dressing may set you back. Commercially-made salad dressings are high in sugar.
But what are hidden sugars doing there? Salad dressing is usually made from refined vegetable oil, which is high fructose corn syrup. It’s also loaded with additives, preservatives, and thickeners.
So the next time you’re having a salad, stick to olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Key Takeaway
Sugar is virtually everywhere – even in less conspicuous sources. To cut back on your sugar intake, it’s not enough to avoid the obvious offenders like desserts. Make it a point to read nutrition labels carefully. Since sugar comes in many guises, it pays to be a discerning consumer. Making these small differences to cut back on sugar can have a big impact on your health.
