无糖的生活 Life without Sugar
I miss my sugar! I've decided to go on a diet to lose weight and I had to give up pastries and cakes. It's difficult because I have a sweet tooth and I love cream cakes.

I've heard that a whole family in South East England lived sugar free for a whole year after they found out their daughter had diabetes. It wasn't easy. I don't go to bakeries to avoid giving in to temptation.Jason Burt's business makes up to 3,000 cakes a week.

They were in shock when the doctor said that their 16-year-old Lucy had to check her blood glucose levels regularly and take insulin. He advised her to eat a normal, balanced diet, but the Burts went further and got rid of sugar altogether.

The British National Health Service advises that the sugar we add to the food and drink we have every day should not be more than 10% of our calorie intake. This is on average 70g for men and just 50g for women. I've decided to forget about the sweet taste of sugar for a while. As British model Kate Moss says: “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.”
英国国家卫生服务中心建议,我们每天在食物和饮料中添加的糖不应高于卡路里所需量的10%。也就是男人平均一天70g,女人一天50g。我决定慢慢遗忘糖的甜味,正如英国模特凯特莫斯所说的,没有任何东西可以和拥有苗条的身材相比。
