Types of Ice Cream to Avoid:

Sugar-Free Ice Cream:

Synthetic colors can cause oxidative stress and are not beneficial for health.

Consider Sorbet: Often made with real fruit, making it a slightly healthier option compared to traditional ice cream.
Limit Portions: Enjoy only one scoop instead of multiple scoops to reduce sugar intake.
Treat Ice Cream as a Rare Indulgence: Keep it as an occasional treat rather than a regular part of your diet.
Opt for Seasonal Fruits:
