I believe that sugar should be avoided as much as possible. My brother can't sleep well because of sugar and has gained a lot of weight. So I decided to support him and give up sugar as well. We read about various vitamins and supplements for weight loss on https://www.canpharm.com/ . So, we have been limiting ourselves in sugar for 2 months now and we both really lost a lot of weight and feel much more active and healthy
