The American Academy of Family Physicians suggests how you can limit added sugar:

• Cut back on candy, desserts, baked goodies and other sweet treats.
• Stick to fresh and healthy foods, such as vegetables, fruit, whole grains and lean forms of protein.
• Drink water instead of sweetened drinks.
• Avoid foods that are processed.
• Opt for lower-sugar recipes when baking.
• Substitute applesauce (unsweetened) or an artificial sweetener, instead of sugar.
