Why Do I NEED a Sugar Detox???

It’s pretty simple. At first, your cravings for sugar may be more pronounced.
After you get over it, you will stop craving sugar all together. (It usually takes 3-4 days) Buckle down and use all of your will power.
Believe it or not, the longer your stay off sugar the easier it gets. This doesn’t mean that you’ll never be able to eat fruit again or enjoy a piece of bread. This is a temporary cleanse to over-correct your blood sugar.

This is when the cravings for sugar disappears, and you energy goes way up! Not to mention that most people see a huge difference in their skin.
Sugar makes you fat, tired, and ugly.
Eating fat doesn’t make you fat, sugar does.
Eating too much sugar and carbs is the reason that most people are tired all the time as well. Not to mention that sugar zaps the collagen in your skin, and dulls your complexion.
Most Americans consume up to three pounds of sugar every week!
It’s not always easy to get away from sugar because they put it in almost everything these days. It’s added to so many processed foods we eat, not just in what we consider “sweets”.
The more sugar you eat, the more your body craves, so just limiting sugar won’t do the trick. You literally have to cut it out completely, cold-turkey, to stop the addictive cycle.
Studies have shown that it can be more difficult to get off of sugar than cocaine.

Signs that your blood sugar may be out of balance
• Cravings for sweets, sugar, or bread products.
 • Fatigue after eating a meal, or “food-coma”
 • Get lightheaded if meals are missed

•Eliminate simple carbohydrates and sugar
•Eat more complex carbohydrates
 •Eat more good fats and essential fatty acids
 •Eat more fiber
•Do a 21 sugar detox!
