Give up Sugar for a Month
- Added sugar contains no essential nutrients and is bad for your teeth,
- Added sugar is high in fructose, which can overload your liver,
- Overloading the liver with fructose can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,
- Sugar can cause insulin resistance, a stepping stone towards metabolic syndrome and diabetes,
- The insulin resistance can progress to type II diabetes,
- Sugar can give you cancer,
- Due to its effects on hormones and the brain, sugar has unique fat-promoting effects,
- Because it causes massive dopamine release in the brain, sugar is highly addictive,
- Sugar is a leading contributor to obesity in both children and adults,
- It ain't the fat...it's sugar that raises your cholesterol and gives you heart disease.
Done this few times over the years.
and after the month, came another and it's been 8 months without any added sugar
