Snack crackers, cookies, sweetened drinks, energy drinks, and other pre-packaged or processed foods taste good in part to the sugar added to these products. Although these foods may taste good, in the long run they are not good for disease prevention or our beach bodies. Excess consumption of added sugars in the diet has now been linked to an increased risk in cancer, heart disease, and other inflammatory disease processes. Fortunately, it will soon be easier to spot added sugars on the Nutrition Facts Label.
