Winter Hot Drink Trap! One cup of hot chocolate is equal to 12 sugar cubes
As the weather gets colder, many people choose to drink hot drinks to warm up in the morning. Hot chocolate and hot milk tea use sugar to help generate heat energy. If you are not careful, you can easily exceed your daily sugar intake. If you drink it regularly, you will fall into the obesity trap at any time!
According to WHO recommendations, sugar intake should not exceed 25 grams of sugar, but a cup of hot chocolate is equivalent to 12 sugar cubes (56 grams of sugar). Double the amount of sugar, it is easy for consumers to be overweight. The following are three ways to reduce sugar taught by nutritionists:
1. When drinking coffee, you can use skim milk or soy milk, and replace brown sugar with sugar.
2. Make your own healthy hot drinks, such as hot water with red dates and ginger.
3. High-fiber, low-sugar soy milk can replace fresh milk. Its protein can effectively warm the body and fill the stomach.
