Sugar Detox
Summary
If you eat dinner solely for the chance to chase it with dessert, we hate to break it to you, but it might be time to try a sugar detox. We’re not talking about a five-day fad cleanse, either. The ultimate goal is to really downplay sugar in the diet and have that be a permanent lifestyle change. Your love for sugary stuff may seem benign, but the truth is that most people are eating way more of it than they need. Americans currently consume 22 teaspoons of sugar per day. That’s more than three times as much as what’s recommended by the American Heart Association. Plus, research shows that not-so-innocent sweet tooth could be doing serious damage to your health, leading to weight gain, high blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and an increased risk for diabetes. In fact, eating too much sugar should be considered just as dangerous as smoking cigarettes. A diet with sugar and high glycemic index foods promotes all the leading causes of death in America. We don’t see value in cutting out sugar for a few days and then going back to eating it, but I do see value in cutting it out permanently. Sugar addiction is no joke. Once you’re hooked, cravings can be hard to resist, leading you down a slippery slope towards obesity and other health problems. Studies are showing that in some people and animals, the brain can react to sugar very much like it can to drugs and alcohol. That’s why when you initially cut added sugars from your diet, you might feel deprived for a few days. When your body is overloaded with waste, you feel more uncomfortable when not eating that food. It’s like stopping coffee. Your efforts to cut back on sugar will pay off though. In the short term, people will notice their energy levels improve right away and after a short period of time they will notice cravings and fatigue diminishes. Plus, the long-term benefits of cutting back on added sugar in your diet are impossible to ignore. One study published in the journal Circulation showed that sugar-sweetened drinks directly cause the cardiovascular disease and diabetes that kill about 184,000 people worldwide every year.
