| Names
of Sugar
For my OA and
OA HOW participants, or people who just choose to avoid sugar
and see the "sneaky wording" that can be used which
means sugar.
If you are physically sensitive, ANY carbohydrate in a large
enough amount can trigger your physical sensitivity. Sugars
are carbohydrates that have been refined or concentrated in
varying degrees. Sugars vary widely in their physical properties
and in their ability to create difficulties for you. Avoid all
products in which any sugar is listed earlier than the fifth
ingredient. Be aware that if more than one sugar is listed,
even below the fifth ingredient, the product may contain a significant
amount of sugar. Listen carefully to your own body as individual
tolerances may vary. Talk about the questionable foods with
people you trust and with your nutritionist, physician or other
professional.
The following is a list of all the different
names for sugar. Read all labels on the food you eat carefully;
sugar is hidden in the most unexpected places.
Note: Corn starch, wheat starch
and modified food starch are not sugars but are such highly
refined flours that the body frequently reacts as though they
were sugars. Avoid products in which they are list before the
fifth ingredient.
