Your sugar sources
Choose a source on each logged treat using its ingredients. Amounts group each food’s logged sugar by your selection; they do not measure individual sugar molecules. Use “Mixed” when a food contains more than one source.
What do these types mean?
Refined added: table sugar, cane sugar, dextrose, or corn syrup. Honey, maple, and agave are added sugars too. Naturally occurring: sugar within plain fruit or milk. “Processed” is not a separate sugar type. Ingredients identify sources, but usually cannot tell you the grams of each. Presets and older logs start as unknown.

A little sugar glossary
Simple definitions to help you read labels and choose a source for your log.
- Added sugar
- Sugar or sweeteners added during preparation or manufacturing, such as sugar stirred into coffee. Honey and syrups count too.
- Refined sugar
- Sugar extracted and purified from a source such as sugar cane or sugar beets. White table sugar is a familiar example. In this tracker, “refined added” also groups sweeteners such as dextrose and corn syrup.
- “Processed sugar”
- An informal phrase, not a separate category on the Nutrition Facts label. Processing describes how a food is made; check its ingredients and added-sugar amount rather than relying on this term.
- Naturally occurring sugar
- Sugar already present in a food, such as fructose in fruit or lactose in plain milk. “Natural” does not mean sugar-free.
- Honey, maple & agave
- These sweeteners still count as added sugars. Swapping table sugar for one of them does not automatically reduce the amount of sugar you eat.
- Total sugar
- Naturally occurring sugar plus added sugar. Example: 12 g total sugar with 5 g added sugar means the other 7 g is naturally occurring—not 17 g altogether.
- Mixed sources
- A food containing more than one sugar source, such as sweetened yogurt with milk sugar and added table sugar. Choose this when one source label would be misleading.
- Unknown / not checked
- You have not checked the ingredients, or there is not enough information to identify a source. Unknown does not mean zero sugar.
The tracker’s source groups describe your selections, not laboratory measurements. An ingredient list usually cannot tell you the grams of each sugar source.
