    Added Sugars in BelVita

    Added sugar have different names like brown sugar, cane juice, corn syrup, dextrose, etc. In case of
    BelVita, they won’t name the specific type of sugar that they used. The American Heart Association
    (AHA) recommends to drastically cut the intake of added sugar as it causes obesity. Added sugar is also
    more harmful on large quantities unlike to the natural sugar as foods containing natural sugar offers
    nutrients that keep your body healthy, provide fast yet stable energy. Added sugar makes your blood
    glucose level drops quickly, also known as sugar crash, that will make you hungry, irritable, and casually
    craving for another added sugar. It also hinders you on making smart choices about what and how
    much to eat, hence the weight gain.
