No sugar in sour cream or cream cheese
Hi - Whew! You sent me running to my refrigerator to check the ingredients when I read your question about sour cream and cream cheese:
"ALSO....... why is cream cheese and sour cream recommended in induction, when they both contain sugar ??"
Sugar is not one of the ingredients in either. However, in the Nutrition Facts (USA) under "sugars" it says 1 g for sour cream and 2 g for cream cheese. I believe that that is referring to the lactose naturally occurring in dairy products.
Obviously you can't avoid ALL sugars (there's probably even some in broccoli!). Just make sure you are not eating anything with ADDED sugar.
Good luck and welcome to this forum!
