[callout] Naturally sweet dishes like this acai bowl can help tame your cravings for sugar-laden processed foods, reveals Andrea Hannemann in <Plant Over Processed>—and cutting back on added sugars is a huge win for heart health. “While the American Heart Association recommends no more than 6 teaspoons (25 grams) of added/refined sugar per day for women, and 9 teaspoons (38 grams) for men, the average American consumes around 20 teaspoons a day! We are a nation of sugar addicts,” she writes. “The processed foods that we eat are in large part to blame.” [/callout]
