This is a very practical workshop on the topic of sugar.  It will cover the following:

• Explanation of what sugar, in particular its place as a carbohydrate and its relationship to fibre and starch.
• Fast releasing and slow releasing sugars explained and the health implications.
• Discussion on the grams of sugar per day you should aim to reduce your intake level to. 
• Reading the nutrition label in relation to 'of which sugars' and understanding what this means.  This is a hands on element with food products and labels being passed around. I also invite candidates to bring foods they regularly use to learn how to check the labels themselves.
• Reading ingredient list to recognise hidden sugars in food.
• Using the front of package label for quick decisions and recognising high, medium and low sugar content products
• Natural versus added sugars - what is the difference.
• Information on artificial sweeteners - pros and cons. 
• The new trend with 'Polyols' in sugar free products, what they are and who should be careful consuming them!
• Ideas and discussion on how to reduce your added sugar intake going through some sample breakfasts, lunches and dinners.
• Questions are answered throughout the workshop.
