craving of sugar is an inborn
trait? In a study published in
the Journal of Comparative
and Physiological
Psychology a while ago,
babies less than three days
old were found .to prefer
sweetened water to plain
water. .

But just because we may
have been born with a fond-
ness. for sweet stuff doesn’t
mean we have to give in to it.
Apart from the commonly
known capacity of sugar to
cause dental caries (and who
wants to lose his sweet tooth
to tooth decay?), there are
other reasons why we should
talk back to oursweet tooth.

For one thing, simple sug-
ars (versus the complex
sugars found in milk, fruits
and vegetables) provide
calones without providing
nutrients. For the dicter, all
those nutritionally empty
calories are an obstacle to
weight loss. When you're on
a weight loss diet, it's more
important than ever that

e
every calorie count
nutritionally to avoid short-
changing your body of the
vitamins, minerals and other
nutrients it requires.

“

Whats a dieter with a
sweet tooth to do? First, try
satisfying that sweet tooth
naturally with options of
complex sugars like apples,
pears, oranges, grapes,
bananas or dried fruits such
as raisins, apricots or dates.
A small amount of sugar,
molasses, honey or syrup is
also an option to help make
your nutritious choices more
palatable. But small is the
eperative word. Or try the
Opposite approach. Munch
on dill pickles or a moderate
serving of popcorn. One
woman I know swears that
by just brushing her tecth
with mint-flavored paste
when the craving hits.
Learning to talk back to your
sweet tooth is one way to
‘think slim” on your-way to
vour diet goal.
