Avoid Paying High Sugar Tax, Buy an Espresso

There is an increasing concern with obesity in the UK. More and more children are falling into this category due to a lot of factors; one of them, the amount of sugar that they take. This is why the Government of UK has created the sugar tax.

Finally, the sugar tax is expected to be published this month. The UK Government in England has waited long enough to publish its obesity strategy, which has been in the pipeline for some time now. It was originally to be published in Autumn 2015.

At the heart of this debate is the ongoing topic of sugar tax. Health experts have been debating for a long time for it to be introduced, with the government advisory body – Public Health England, also putting a case forward for it.

The target is mainly children who consume three times as much sugar as they are supposed to. The results of this habit of children have shown that one in five children is obese by the time they finish primary school, and one in three classed as overweight.

Even though the target of this new law is children, of course, adults will also be affected. With a proposed cost increase of up to 20% on sugar-loaded food and drinks, drinking an espresso could be the healthy and cheaper option.

In the UK, the average person consumes 12 teaspoons of sugar each day with some adults consuming as much as 46! With 1 teaspoon amounting to approximately 5 grams of sugar, every time you drink a can of fizzy pop or glass of fruit juice you could be consuming up to 35 grams or 7 teaspoons alone!

When you choose black coffee or an espresso, you not only save, you are also choosing the healthy low, no-calorie option alternative because what increases the calories are the milk and sugar that is added to sweeten your coffee. A quality espresso can be hard to find, but when you do, it is usually produced by fine ground roasted coffee beans, good quality equipment, water, temperature, pressure and storage factors. Whether you purchase from a skilled barista or make your own espressos, each time you will doing a little bit to help both your body and your pocket!

By drinking espressos, you won’t just save on calories and cost, but you will also be helping to reduce your future risk of suffering from diabetes, heart disease and cancer too.

Espresso coffee + water = virtually calorie and tax-free!
