Consuming too much sugar over the long term can increase the risk of weight gain, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and tooth decay. The Indonesian Ministry of Health recommends limiting sugar intake to about four tablespoons per person per day.<\/p>\n<p>The simplest step is to cut back on sweet drinks. Replace sweet tea, syrup drinks, or soda with water or unsweetened tea. If it&#8217;s hard to quit all at once, reduce the amount of sugar gradually so your taste buds get used to a less sweet flavor.<\/p>\n<p>Make a habit of reading the nutrition facts label when shopping, because sugar is often listed under other names such as corn syrup, sucrose, or fructose. Choose whole fruit as a sweet snack and eat more fiber-rich foods such as vegetables and whole grains, which help you stay full longer.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a family history of diabetes or want to know your blood sugar level, consult a doctor through DokterIN for appropriate advice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Excess sugar intake can increase the risk of obesity and diabetes.
