I cannot meet my daily goal for sugar, and it is mainly because my daily fuji apple has 16 grams! I had no idea apples had so much sugar. Should I try to eat a less sugary fruit? Or should I not be concerned because it is "natural" sugar as opposed to added? Advice?

    Good point. i'm not sure why they say "An apple a day keeps the doctor's away" I guess depending on the apple ....... No advice...just thought you brought up a good point :smile:

    You need fruits and vegetables and you really can't have fruits without having natural sugars. It's processed sugars you want to watch out for. I actually stopped tracking my sugar because you can't seperate natural and processed sugars and I know when I'm eating too much of the processed kind.
