The amount of simple sugar (C6H1206- glucose or fructose) can be easily reduced by cutting junk foods. High fructose corn syrup is routinely added to a number of processed foods. Soda, candy, packaged "baked goods" (donuts, Little Debbie products, twinkies) and the like are all high in sugars. Avoid adding sugar to your food (such as putting brown sugar in oatmeal or on fruit). While fruit itself is high in sugar, don't reduce your consumption of it. Fruits can be very high in antioxidants and studies have regularly found that high consumption of fruit can reduce the risk of many diseases. If you're going to get your sugar somewhere, get it from fruit.
