| Go easy on fats and sugars added to foods in cooking or at the
table--butter, margarine, gravy, salad dressing, sugar, and jelly.
| Choose fewer foods that are high in sugars--candy, sweet desserts, and
soft drinks.
| The most effective way to moderate the amount of fat and added sugars in
your diet is to cut down on "extras" (foods in this group). Also
choose lower fat and lower sugar foods from the other five food groups
often. | |
