Does anyone know how sweet tea and soda compare as far as sugar content. I keep seeing children order sweet tea and I even a saw a mother put sweet tea in her babies bottle. We keep hearing about cutting out soda in children's diets but what about sweet tea?

look on the can of soda, sugar grams are listed. 9 grams of sugar equal about 1 teaspoon of sugar. so if the can says 36 grams then you know there is about 4 teaspoons of sugar.
sweet tea on the other hand can be made with sugar as regulated by you. a side benefit is that sweet tea will not contain any of the "other" ingredients that come in soda.

I gave up soda many years in the past. My own idea is that once you're going to bypass by the worry of reducing soda out, you may want to besides replace it with water every time achievable. I did that and it change right into a troublesome transition before everything yet now water is merely what I clearly attain for, i do not even imagine about it. yet it truly is merely my 2 cents, that being suggested iced tea is my drink of decision even as i'm out. oftentimes i bypass for unsweetened, this is fit and extra accessible at eating places. in case you'll sweeten it your self, I recommend truthfully sugar reasonably. synthetic sweeteners merely don't have sufficient study behind them, there is plenty obtainable that asserts they have some undesirable lengthy time period uncomfortable aspect consequences and they merely have not been round lengthy sufficient to really understand. in case you decrease sugar on your weight-loss plan, this isn't any challenge to splurge on it on your iced tea. no count number what you eventually end up ingesting, kudos to you for giving up the soda!! strong success.
