If you’re looking to start better eating habits ahead of the holiday season, start by finding ways to cut sugar intake. By consuming less sugar, you’ll have an easier time managing weight and can expect several other great health benefits. And with the help of healthy snacks that still satisfy your sweet tooth, you won’t miss a beat.

REPLACE SODA WITH WATER AND OTHER DRINKS

It can be easy to fall into the rut of leaning on sugary drinks to give you an energy boost. Cutting out energy drinks and soda and replacing them with healthier alternatives is a surefire way to cut sugar intake. Try swapping out canned colas for green tea and replacing energy drinks with black coffee. You may start losing weight, all without noticing a decrease in energy.

BE CAREFUL WITH CONDIMENTS

Condiments can be dangerous for healthy eating habits because they stealthily add calories you might not be accounting for. If you use condiments like ketchup, barbecue sauce, and some salad dressings, read the nutrition labels and you may be surprised to see how much sugar they contain. You can limit the use of these condiments and replace them with spices and lower-sugar options like mustard and malt vinegar.

OPT FOR HEALTHY SNACKS

Sugary snacks like cookies and candy bars are major culprits when it comes to high sugar intake. If you’re looking to pick up healthy eating habits, dropping these sweets for other healthy snacks is a strong start in that direction. It’s okay to treat yourself to the occasional indulgence, but snacks like fresh fruit and Greek yogurt are great daily snack options that won’t neglect satisfying your sweet tooth.
