4 Healthy Sugar Replacements to Try

As a Registered Dietitian, added sugar is one of the main ingredients I advise clients to remove from their diet. Of course, the next question clients will often ask is how they can still satisfy their sweet tooth. Below, I'm sharing four fantastic sugar replacements you can use today. 
 
Dates offer an overwhelming natural sweetness. Replacing refined sugar and artificial sweeteners with this delicious fruit will not only reduce inflammation caused by sugar, but also increase the nutrient content of your diet! They contain potassium, magnesium, and fiber that can aid in proper digestion.  Consuming dates can also aid in heart health, energy production, and muscle contraction.
