Sugar and Sugar-Sweetened Drinks
Sugar is the first food to be eliminated from a paleo diet. This approach is in accordance with national sugar-reduction standards, so minimizing your sugar intake will have positive outcomes.
Some sugar sources are paleo-friendly. Honey, maple syrup, molasses, and a variety of other natural sweeteners are minimally processed. Feel free to consume these in moderation, but don't overdo it. Even though these natural sources contain certain micronutrients, a lot of natural sugar is still a lot of sugar, which is bad for your health!
