Experimental Treatment

Group I: Whole and minimally processed and sweetened foods (low processed and low added sugar)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

This period emphasizes incorporating minimally processed (e.g., intact whole grains) foods with minimal to no added sugar, aligning added sugar intake levels with recommendations from the American Heart Association and Dietary guidelines. Consume at least 1 daily serving of the chosen, minimal to no sweetened breakfast food in place of "usual" sweetened breakfast cereal/cereal-granola bar and consume a whole piece of fruit (or serving of fruit) in place of a sweetened baked goods/candy/desserts (at least 1 daily serving). If they eat peanuts or nuts, consume plain or dry-roasted (no to low sodium) nuts/peanuts at least 3 days a week (1 serving), or as frequently as usual habits if more often If consume sweetened beverages (artificial or regular) or sweetened coffee or tea, consume unsweetened coffee or tea and consume plain water in place of the sweetened beverages at the same frequency/amount that usually do

Group II: Regular sweetened commercial foods (processed and high added sugar)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

This is the "usual" habits period. Participants consume the chosen, sweetened commercial products of their choice in the breakfast cereal/cereal-granola bar category (at least 1 daily serving) and sweetened baked goods/candy/desserts (at least 1 daily serving). If they eat peanuts or nuts, and willingly consume chocolate covered peanuts or nuts, they will eat regular sweetened chocolate covered nuts/peanuts at least 3 days a week (1 serving/day), or as frequently as their usual habits if more often. If they consume sweetened beverages (artificial or regular) or sweetened coffee or tea, they will consume these regular sweetened beverages as they usually do.

Group III: Allulose sweetened commercial foods (processed and low added sugar)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

This period emphasizes minimizing added sugar, aligning intake levels with recommendations from the AHA and Dietary guidelines by consuming allulose sweetened products. Participants will eat at least 1 daily serving of the chosen, provided allulose sweetened breakfast/cereal-granola bar, and at least 1 daily serving of allulose sweetened baked goods/candy/desserts in place of the usual sweetened products from these food categories. If they eat peanuts or nuts, and willingly consume chocolate covered peanuts or nuts, eat allulose sweetened chocolate covered nuts/peanuts at least 3 days a week (1 serving/day), or as frequently as usual habits if more often. If they consume sweetened beverages (artificial or regular) or sweetened coffee or tea, consume allulose sweetened beverages in place of their artificial or regular sweetened beverages (provided commercial and/or syrups), and sweeten coffee or tea with the provided allulose sweetener. Do this according to usual habits.
