Trick or Treat! All About Sugar, Candy and Sweets [Ep. 27]


Listen Later

Let's have an honest conversation about candy, sugar, and all sorts of sweet treats! As we come into the holidays, especially Halloween, sweets abound. It's helpful if we can enter this season with a good knowledge base to help influence our choices about treats.

On this episode, Scott and I are going to discuss:

  • The short- and long-term dangers of eating a diet high in sugar
  • How much sugar is too much?
  • Appropriately reading food labels 
  • Becoming more aware of the hidden sugars we eat every day

We're going to chat about the best ways to practice reducing your sugar intake on a regular basis so you feel like you have more control. We'll also specifically tackle strategies for handling Halloween candy. 

We want you to have a sound mind. Use good judgment. And be disciplined and wise when surrounded by candy and sweet treats.
