Food that people think of as healthy may contain hidden amounts of saturated fats and sugars. A study out of The Ohio State University found that foods like chicken breast and seafood still have some amounts and not knowing could make it difficult to limit fat and sugar to the recommended 10-percent of daily calorie intake. The report says “Nearly half of the intakes of added sugars from adults were from five sources: soft drinks, tea, fruit drinks, cakes and pies, and sugar and honey.’” Top sources of fats were from the obvious suspects like cheese. But less-obvious sources included cold cuts, no-dairy creamer, energy drinks and ketchup.
