    I like to snack on dry fruits and love to have milkshakes with honey or brown sugar for additional sweetening if required.
    You’ve given some good options here.

    Raisins and dates do an excellent job in stopping those sweet cravings. Also i am not sure of the health benefits but have seen many people add jaggery to substitute sugar.

    The secret is snacking. And I don’t mean digging around in a bag of chips and licking the
    salt off your fingers (we’ve all been there), I mean pouring yourself a bowl of organic nuts.
    Or blueberries. Or frozen peas. Be inventive, but clever about it. Choose the right food in
    moderation.
