Ask the Diet Doctor: Cutting Back on Sugar
Q: I want to cut back on my sugar consumption. Should I go cold turkey or ease into it? Where do I begin?

A: I’m glad to hear that you are making efforts to cut down on your sugar consumption. Added sugar makes up 16 percent of the total calories in the average American diet—that’s 320 calories for someone on a 2,000-calorie plan! Removing this many calories can make a huge impact if you are trying to lose weight. For some people, cutting out added sugar is the only diet change they need to drop significant pounds.

But eliminating sugar is hard because it’s addictive. Some research shows that high intakes of the sweet stuff can mimic the effects of opiates. I’m not saying that your midafternoon cola fix is giving you the same high as popping oxycodone, but they both stimulate similar areas of the brain, leading to feelings of pleasure.
