It is important to distinguish between naturally occurring sugars and added sugar.

Not all sugar behaves the same way in your body. When sugar comes packaged inside a whole food; wrapped in fibre, water, and micronutrients, your body digests it slowly and you feel fuller for longer. Blood glucose rises gradually, your pancreas responds proportionally, and you feel full longer.

Added sugar acts differently. It's absorbed rapidly, causes sharper spikes in blood glucose, and delivers calories with minimal nutritional return. Over time, consistent blood sugar spikes are associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease - it is therefore important to understand, monitor and control how much added sugar we are consuming each meal. Therefore, our meals have a maximum of 5g added sugar per meal.
