Sweet Diet Options for Sugar

You (yes you!) are cordially invited to our Naturally Sweet Diet Table. Although there are many recipes at Diet Bites that contain sugar substitutes, natural is still the best avenue when it comes to our daily diet.

And everyone can't always enjoy sugar substitutes due to health reasons, allergies - and so forth. On that sweet note, below are some sweet natural suggestions that most every dieter can use to sweeten up their diet plan, including a diet recipe for Strawberry Shortcake.

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries - Rather than punch through those chocolate heart-shaped boxed searching for the candies containing nuts, opt for a giant chocolate dipped strawberry. Dark chocolate will deliver a few healthy benefits. Although this decadent treat isn't low in calories or fat - the strawberry makes a much wiser choice over sugar-loaded candy.

Sweet Recipes Say Goodbye Sugar - Substitute any of the following for sugar in recipes for a sweet, moist result: fresh dates, mashed fresh banana, figs, fresh peaches, applesauce, fresh berries and most any type of dried fruits.

Remodeling the Old Sugar Shack. Although more always sounds better, sometimes less is more. Cutting back on sugar slowly will allow the taste buds to adjust and the dieter will save a plethora of calories. How many?

One cup of sugar contains about 800 calories. Two level tablespoons equals 1/4 cup which equals 200 calories if that Tablespoon is balanced with sugar. If that sugar goes into a glass of iced tea - the calories go from zero to 200 in nothing flat.

Now if the dieter were to cut back on sugar intake, those 200 calories could easily transform into 50-75 calories - which isn't bad for a glass of delicious sweetened iced tea.

And Honey, I Love You - Get out of the sugar rut by experimenting with the taste of honey. Honey is one of the most fascinating sweeties and stems from most any flowering throb of nature that bees fancy - even from dandelions. Take note that some flowering throbs may not be edible for humans.
