One of the best things you can do for your overall health - and your size is cut on the sugar. The addictive sweetener took on the roll of "villain of food" for many of us (especially those with a sweet tooth!), Was attached to a host of health problems and is credited with helping Fuel the obesity epidemic of the country.

For this podcast this week, the eater this, not that! The team is joined by Jeff Csatari, the management publisher ofEat this, not that! magazine and the author of one of our last books,The 14-day sugar plan: lose to a book a day and find your way for better health. In the pages of his book easy to understand, Jeff shares ideas on how sugar cravings and dependencies can be addressed - and in just two weeks.

Identify these sneaky sugars

Evidentic treats - think of cookies, candies and soda - are easy to target and avoid, but what about secret sugar bombs in your healthy meals and snacks? Too often the foods we think are good for us are loaded with hidden sugars: the type that triggers cravings for more sweets and accelerates the storage of belly fat.

To help restart your weight loss, find these sneaky sugars that hide in your food and stop eating them.14 days without sugar helps you identify them. Jeff shares some of the worst joint offenders:

Calcium, proteins and fruits. What's wrong with yogurt? Try a reduction of 20 to 25 grams of sweet sugars - all hidden in a dairy disguise "healthy".

We all know that the soup can pack astounding amounts of sodium, but what about sugar? Campbell's creamy tomato soup gives 14 grams even before adding saltines. Makefatal instead of.

He has "Bran" in the title. It sounds good, right? Yes, but it also has raisins covered with sugar in the box, contributing to the 18 grams of sugar per cup of cereals.

They call EM energy bars for a reason: they are full of energy in the form of sugar. A typical bar package four oreo cookies of sugar. Of course, you will get a temporary thumbs up of energy, but expect a hard crash shortly after.

The natural nectar of Vitamin C of Florida is not as salient as it may seem. An 11.5 ounce bottle of orange juice without pulp without pulp with 33 grams of sugar - it is the same amount of diet you will find on three krispy kreme gladid donuts!

Red Bull is another culprit "energy" providing 27 grams of sugar by eight ounces. It's more than what you enter in a bar of snickers. The trouble to get your wings? We did not think it.

There is nothing wrong with leafy greens and grilled chicken. But it is the eastern vinaigrette that transforms a healthy meal into the equivalent of sugar of a plate of 10 biscuits of Oreo.
