Sugar growers have a lot of political clout here. The anti-sugar guy's answer to their predictable complaint of, "The only thing we can grow in a tropical climate and get a reasonable return is sugar.", was "You said the same thing when you grew tobacco, before you switched to sugar. There's a huge market for palm seed oil, you could grow that on your already cleared land and get a better return."
Teas? Surely there's no sugar in tea, it's dried leaves  I guess you mean those the 'iced tea' drinks. I tried one, once - awful stuff.
A couple of months ago I came up with the idea of keeping a jug of liquorice tea in the fridge. I've since discovered it's another well known sugar busting tactic Ψ²

Yes, it is very good advice as long as you avoid the beverages.
It is good advice for everyone not just those trying to lose weight.
Unfortunately the good teas are on an aisle. Yes, I was referring to bottled teas that are laden with sugar.
