Did You Know? MILK

Did you know that Milk has naturally occurring sugars? One cup of milk has 12 grams of sugar which equals to almost 1 tablespoon. 

So consider the fact that flavored yogurts can contain up to 35 Grams of sugar!! Which equals to almost 2 1/2 tablespoons. Did you also know that based on a 2,000 calorie diet the daily recommended amount of added sugar is 40 grams? So if you eat a flavored yogurt with 35 grams of sugar, you are eating in that one yogurt your daily sugar allowance, missing it by 5 grams.
