Lick the Sugar Habit Sugar Counter: Discover the Hidden Sugar in Your Food

The average American consumes nearly 150 pounds of sugar and other sweeteners a year. Many people are dangerously addicted to sugar, putting them at risk for a host of diseases and conditions including hypoglycemia, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, allergies, obesity, tooth decay, and more. While many sources of sugar are quite obvious (cookies, candy, soft drinks), hundreds of processed foods have hidden sugars that are often the real cause of trouble for people trying to improve diet and nutrition.
