How To KicK THe<br />
Sugar Habit<br />
Health and wellness coach Annabelle Matson looks in to<br />
the huge sugar problem facing today’s society and gives us<br />
some tools on how we can kick the habit.<br />
Overconsumption of refined and processed sugar has become<br />
a huge problem in Western society. An average Western diet<br />
contains around 40 teaspoons of sugar per day. The World Health<br />
Organisation recommends between 6-8 teaspoons. Studies show<br />
that the overconsumption of sugar contributes to many health<br />
concerns, such as tooth decay, diabetes, hypertension, depression,<br />
and obesity.<br />
If you are currently consuming a lot of processed and packaged<br />
foods, removing sugar from your diet can seem like a really big<br />
undertaking, but don’t be disheartened! Making the decision<br />
to kick the sugar habit is the first step to detoxing and living a<br />
healthier life. The improvements to your health and life will be<br />
incredible and across the board.<br />
Many people report that after removing sugar from their diet<br />
they experience weightloss, younger-looking skin, reduced feelings<br />
of anxiety and stress, endless energy, improvements to conditions<br />
such as autoimmune diseases and hormonal problems, increased<br />
focus, and much more.<br />
6 Simple Steps To<br />
Becoming Sugar-Free:<br />
1. EAt REAl Food<br />
Sugar is not only found in obvious places like fizzy drinks and<br />
lollies, but also a lot of foods that market themselves as being<br />
healthy or “natural”. The best way to reduce or eliminate sugar is<br />
to avoid processed and packaged foods. Just eat real, whole food<br />
in the least processed state as possible and use these ingredients<br />
as the basis for your meals and recipes.<br />
