Sometimes you need something sweet, full stop — and
mo
re power to you. The only problem: When you eat the processed or
baked treats you really crave, your blood sugar spikes, which triggers
the release of insulin and leaves you susceptible to storing excess
blood sugar as fat — particularly in the belly area, according to
registered dietitian Alissa Rumsey, spokesperson for the Academy of
Nutrition and Dietetics. Even worse, eating foods full of added sugars
can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.But it doesn't have to be that way. You can hit the spot with foods that get their sweetness from nature, not added sugar. Because naturally sweet-tasting foods tend to pack worthwhile nutrients, they're a far superior way to satisfy your cravings without sacrificing your health
