A healthy way to satisfy your sweet tooth is to enjoy a piece of fresh fruit — either by itself, with yogurt, or added to a smoothie or shake. While some fruit can be high in sugar, if you are active and healthy, having too much fructose (the sugar from fruit) doesn't need to be a concern of yours. However, if you have (or are at risk of getting) diabetes, your fruit intake should be monitored since too much fruit may lead to high blood sugar.
