The so-called less sugar means that when drinking soup, soup and water, try not to put sugar or put less sugar. For all kinds of sweet drinks on the market, the sugar content of varieties marked with low sugar is between 4-6%, that of ordinary products is between 8- 10%, and that of sugar-free products is below 0.5%. If the sugar content is 8%, then drinking a bottle of 500 ml beverage consumes 40 grams of sugar besides water, which is equivalent to the carbohydrate content of half a bowl of rice. 1.25 liters of Coca-Cola contains about 130 grams of sugar, which is equivalent to 3 bowls of rice. It is not difficult to drink.

So all countries in the world have proved that drinking sweet drinks is an important cause of obesity. Commercial sweet drinks should be avoided as much as possible, and even pure fruit juice is not recommended to exceed one cup a day, because the sugar content is also very high, usually between 8- 16%.

Besides drinks, homemade soups and drinks may also contain sugar. For example, red bean paste and green bean paste, such as tremella soup and Sydney soup, such as almond milk and walnut milk. If you really can't drink without sugar, try to add as little as possible and add it to the minimum amount you can accept.

Salty liquid, dinner is usually all kinds of soup. If the salt content of the soup is 0.5% (most people like the salty taste of this concentration), then if you drink 1 cup of 200 ml of soup, you will consume 1 gram of salt. According to the recommended water consumption of various soups and soup blocks in the market, the salt content of soup is usually between 0.7- 1.0%. Therefore, you should put as little salt as possible when cooking soup, especially the soup cooked for health preservation. If you want to drink two more bowls, the salt must be very small, controlled below 0.3%, just a little salty, or even no salt at all. Otherwise, it will not only fail to maintain health, but also increase the burden on the kidneys and even lead to high blood pressure.

Few people know that many sweet drinks also contain sodium. Look carefully at the nutrient composition table on the beverage bottle, and the sodium content is marked on it. On the one hand, adding some salt to sweet drinks can highlight sweetness and improve flavor; On the other hand, sweet drinks need to add some phosphate to improve the taste, which is not so "water". They also use sodium salts, such as sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium hexametaphosphate. Therefore, drinking more sweet drinks is not conducive to controlling blood pressure, which is also confirmed by epidemiological studies.

Freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice contains most soluble nutrients in fruits and vegetables, such as potassium, polyphenols and a small amount of vitamin C, but sweet fruit and vegetable juice is also the source of sugar. Six cups a day (1200ml) of light sweet fruit and vegetable juice (sugar content 5%) contains 240 kilocalories, equivalent to two-thirds of bowls of rice. Because the taste of vegetables is not ideal, people usually put a lot of sweet fruits when squeezing fruit and vegetable juice to cover up the faint bitterness and grassy smell of green leafy vegetables. This will increase the sugar. Therefore, drinking freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juice must also give up the sweet taste and try to drink varieties with light sweetness, so as to effectively obtain the benefits of fruits and vegetables while supplementing water.

Some people may ask, don't both rehydration salts and physiological saline contain sodium and sugar? The taste is obviously sweet and salty. Rehydration salt is not for healthy people, but for people with diarrhea or temporarily unable to eat because of gastrointestinal infection. The reason why salt must be added is to make up for the electrolyte loss caused by vomiting and diarrhea and maintain the osmotic pressure of body fluids. The reason why glucose is added is also to bring some energy to patients who can't eat, so as to avoid hypoglycemia and physical decline.

Similarly, salt and sugar are also added to sports drinks. Because strenuous exercise and excessive sweating will lose some salt and exercise will consume blood sugar, so it is necessary to replenish energy in time. If you don't take strenuous exercise and sweat a lot, just walk a few steps and do broadcast gymnastics, don't drink this sports drink, otherwise it will increase your body burden and gain weight.
