SUGAR.

Ah Sugar!  There are so many things to talk about it when it comes to sugar but the bottom line is; IT’S POISON.  It’s so cute and fun and delicious but it is destroying lives, and is a key contributor for many chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and fatty liver disease.  But do you know how much it really affects your daily life?

As a child, my parents tried to keep sugar out of our house but, we ALWAYS had dessert after dinner and it is such a sneaky added ingredient in so many foods labeled as health foods and marketed to kids!  I never thought twice about how bad my sugar addiction was until I tried to cut it out.  During this time, I could not stop myself from going into the cabinet after dinner  (and lunch usually) looking for something sweet, no matter how hard I tried! It was definitely an addiction and there are studies about how addictive it really is. Is it really as addictive as cocaine? Possible more? Check out this article on how addictive it is and watch this video on the disturbing truth about sugar.

Want to detox from sugar?  Try reading this article and look at your labels.  You can also contact me if you are interested in a high quality cleanse.  This is not available anywhere but from a licensed practitioner (ME). You can also contact me for a more thorough evaluation at my clinic.  Just contact me below for more information.

FYI – the worst culprits are yogurt, ketchup, cereals, bread, oatmeal, “health” bars, and energy drinks or sports drinks – Usually the brand targeted for your kids!
