Sugar: Sugars are simple carbohydrates that provide the body with energy. While some sugars occur naturally in fruits and vegetables, many processed and packaged foods contain added sugars, which can contribute to weight gain, tooth decay, and an increased risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. It is important to limit added sugars in your diet and to choose whole foods whenever possible.
