Yep, along with limiting the foods I listed below.

Oh okay great, so as long as I keep my carbs in check then sugar should be okay too?

Melissa,
On a food label, the sugar listing includes not only refined white sugar, but also fructose (fruit sugar) and lactose (milk sugar). This is why a cup of milk has 12 grams of sugar listed (natural milk sugar), but not one tsp of refined white table sugar. It is very deceiving and confusing, and at present impossible to track. Our dietitian usually suggests that folks track total carbohydrates and keep these in a healthy level, and make a conscious effort to limit sweets, candy, pie, cookies, syrup, jams, pop, etc.

Is ther a way to track your sugar intake? I don't see it listed in the list of nutrients to track?
