Sugar

You can divide sugars (simple carbs) into 2 categories: Naturally occurring sugars, such as lactose in milk and fructose in fruits. Naturally occurring sugars are usually accompanied by other nutrients so they are not of great concern to nutritionists. The second category are refined sugars, those that are added to food for sweetening, browning, or to increase bulk. There are 4 grams of sugar in 1 teaspoon*

FYI: Reduced-fat and Fat-free food products often contain a lot of added sugar. Manufacturers often add sugar when they remove fat, so even though you are not eating fat, you may be consuming the same number of calories by eating sugar instead!
