Is It Possible to Have a Healthy Relationship With Sugar?

 Hello, my friend,  Renee here from The Diabetic Toolbox, where our mission is to end type 2 diabetes one family at a time.

This is The Daily Dose, your moment to pause, learn something new, and take one small step toward balance and better health.”

Sugar isn’t evil; it’s just overused. The key is learning how your body reacts to it. When you eat sugar with fiber, protein, or healthy fats, it slows absorption and minimizes that blood sugar spike. It’s not about cutting out everything you love; it’s about balance and awareness.

Your action step today: check one label for hidden sugars. Look for ingredients ending in “-ose”  like glucose or fructose. Awareness is power, and one label at a time, you’ll start seeing patterns that help you make smarter choices.
