预防肾衰竭

戒掉糖瘾, 生活照样甜蜜!

什么是糖类

糖类指的是在人体内经过消化、吸收分解后成为能量的碳水化合物, 为我们身体供能使用。

糖分为两种:
天然糖 –天然存在于水果 (果糖) 或牛奶 (乳糖) 等食物中的糖

添加糖 – 在食品生产和/或准备过程中用来调味或添加色素所添加的糖

过量摄取糖有什么危害?
摄入过多的糖会导致不必要的体重增加, 增加罹患第二型糖尿病和其他慢性疾病 (包括心脏病和癌症) 的风险。它也会影响牙齿健康。

我每天能摄入多少糖

根据世界卫生组织2015年推出的指南,建议每日的添加糖摄入量不超过五茶匙 (25克)。

积极地找出隐藏在食物中的添加糖将有效地减少糖分的摄取。

各种糖的名称

您能够通过一些线索找出食品中是否含有添加糖, 这包括:

  • 含有糖浆(例如:玉米糖浆、水果糖浆、枫糖浆、米糖浆、玫瑰糖浆)
  • 以“糖”结尾的单词(例如:果糖、葡萄糖、蔗糖、麦芽糖)
  • 在产品名称中包含“糖”一词(例如:原糖、蔗糖、红糖、糖粉、白糖、糖醇)
  • 其他含有添加糖的食品包括果蜜、浓缩果汁、蜂蜜、龙舌兰蜜和糖蜜

如何阅读营养成分标签

选择较健康的食品

利用这些简单又美味的小技巧以减少添加糖和卡路里的摄取!

甜点和糖果

您无需把甜点和糖果从生活中完全剔除。您可以要把高糖分冰淇淋换成较健康的选择, 如冰糕和冻酸奶。您也可把它与新鲜水果混合并冷冻起来制作出一道消暑的甜品。

零食和混合燕麦片

与其从超市购买, 不如在家自己制作不含添加糖的零食和燕麦混合片。您可以把喜欢的坚果、干果、无糖燕麦片和/或全麦谷粮混合在一起。

调味品和酱料

市售的调味品和酱料含有大量的添加糖。不如尝试亲手制作,这样一来您就可以控制糖的份量。

咖啡和茶

建议每周把添加在咖啡和茶中的糖分减少一半,让味蕾循序渐进地适应无糖。
