Cutting sugar from your diet

6 Simple Ways to Reduce Sugar in Your Diet

Reducing sugar in your diet can lead to better energy levels, improved dental health, and a lower risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Here are six easy ways to cut back on sugar without feeling deprived.

1. Choose whole foods

Processed foods often contain hidden sugars. Opt for whole, unprocessed foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to naturally reduce your sugar intake.

2. Read food labels

Sugar hides under many names, such as sucrose, glucose, fructose, and high-fructose corn syrup. Check food labels and choose products with little or no added sugar.

3. Cut back on sugary drinks

Soft drinks, flavoured coffees, fruit juices, and energy drinks are loaded with sugar. Replace them with water, herbal teas, or sparkling water infused with fresh fruit for a natural sweetness.

4. Swap sugary snacks for healthier options

Instead of reaching for biscuits or chocolate, snack on nuts, yogurt with fresh berries, or hummus with vegetable sticks. These options provide nutrients and satisfy cravings without excess sugar.

5. Cook at home more often

Restaurant and takeaway meals often contain hidden sugars. Preparing meals at home allows you to control ingredients and use natural sweeteners like cinnamon or vanilla instead of sugar.

6. Reduce sugar gradually

Going cold turkey can be challenging. Slowly reduce sugar in your tea, coffee, and cereals to allow your taste buds to adjust. Over time, you’ll find you crave sugar less.

Making small, consistent changes can significantly reduce your sugar intake and improve your overall health. Give these tips a try and enjoy the benefits of a lower-sugar lifestyle!

📣 An important update from Dr Carol Somerville Roberts

In this video, Carol shares some personal news about reducing her clinical days from early 2026, following advice from her consultant. While this means she’ll be seeing fewer patients day-to-day, Carol will still be very much involved in Evolve Dentistry, continuing to provide treatments such as amalgam removal and cosmetic dentistry, and ensuring we deliver the highest standards of care.

We’re also thrilled to share that Carol will be taking on the role of President of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry this November 👏 — a fantastic recognition of her expertise and dedication to dentistry.

For many patients, your care will now be with Dr Richard Ford, Carol’s long-standing colleague and friend. Richard shares the same commitment to excellence and patient care that Evolve is known for, and we know you’ll be in excellent hands.

Thank you, as always, for your trust and support. 💙
