- Fat Loss
Regulated appetite and blood sugar, plus less cravings.
- Elevated Energy
Stable blood sugar levels without the feeling of ‘hitting the wall’.
Sugar feeds bad bacteria in our gut, contributing to digestive issues.
Sugar spikes insulin which is inflammatory to the skin (acne).
Sugar robs the body of essential nutrients required for optimal immune function.
- Balanced Hormones
Insulin resistance is associated with increased testosterone and PCOS.
- Stable Mood
Low blood sugar can cause that oh so familiar hangry feeling.
Again, low blood sugar impacts brain function and can be to blame for brain fog.
- Dampened Inflammation
Inflammatory foods include sugar, trans fats, vegetable oil, gluten, wheat, and processed foods.
- Decreased Risk of Chronic Diseases
Sugar consumption is closely linked with obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Trial a sugar-free diet for 3 weeks. 21 days to make or break a habit. We don’t need to eat sugar, our body makes it from the carbs we eat anyway. Check the back of all your packets. Even better, don’t eat anything that comes processed in a packet!
