\"Yes<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hi, my name is Tara. I’m a qualified nutritionist and yes, I take sugar in my coffee and tea.<\/p>\n

Because I love it.<\/p>\n

Because I don’t enjoy those drinks without it.<\/p>\n

Because I know that 1 teaspoon of sugar in my day won’t kill me or cause disastrous health effects.<\/p>\n

Because I know that the fear of sugar is more harmful to our psychological health than the physical effect that sugar could have.<\/p>\n

Because I know that everything is a poison but what matters is the dose.<\/p>\n

Because I am mindful of how much added sugar I have in my week and know that it is a small amount.<\/p>\n

Because enjoying a cuppa just the way I like it saves my sanity.<\/p>\n

Because healthy eating is more than just avoiding certain foods and nutrients<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’m not saying we should all go nuts and eat sugar, but I am saying that we need to put it in perspective<\/p>\n
