But there are those among us who completely avoid sugar from the food and use honey instead. Many people use honey as a sweetener in the belief that it is good for them. But it does more harm than good.
Doctors say that it is not good for diabetic patients to consume sugar, although it is rich in nutrients. Because it contains more calories than sugar. It is said that there are 64 kilocalories in one teaspoon. In the same place, sugar has 48 kcal.
