Sugar addict in recovery here 👋. It’s been over 2 yrs and I still struggle at times. I’ve resigned myself to accept that this might be a life long thing that I have to manage. The health benefits that I have experienced by cutting out most sugar far outweigh the occasional struggle.
@smania75756 ай бұрын
My husband and I still struggle sometimes too. It's been about three years since we cut out most sugar from our diet. I've found social gatherings are the worst. Most people bring deserts or sugar filled processed foods. It's difficult to say no when you have tons of sugar sitting there. I think we need a Sugarholics Anonymous group to help people trying to keep sugar consumption low. Lol

I had hypoglycemia for a long time as a teen. It took years to figure out that it was actually because i ate too much sugar. For a long time in my early adult life i ate extremely clean and it went away. When i met my husband, my eating habits got bad again, and it came back and i developed pcos. We are both eating much healthier now, but im also starting to go through menopause, and am dealing with painful ovarian cysts. I have screwed myself up and am reaping what ive sown as i get older. For all you young people, dont get into bad eating habits because you will pay for it in middle age.

yes, I respect you for taking accountability and responsibility for your actions. Many women (certainly not all) change for the worse during menopause and I've known for a while now that the foods and drinks that many women eat throughout their lives are causing these issues. Consistent bad decisions catch up eventually. Just menopause/infertility in general happens as EARLY as it does for the majority of modern women because of all the poison that females grow up putting in their bodies including all forms of synthetic medications. A baby girl is born with all the eggs she will ever have, but statistically, by the time most females reach the age of 30, they only have less than 5-7% of the eggs they had as children. this is due to all these poisons like processed anti-biotics (anti-life), processed sugars, GMOs, alcohol poisoning, smoking, etc. Some women in the Hunza community in Pakistan can give birth at the age of 90 years up to this day, these women are not superior, they merely live their lives the way they are supposed to live.

Only small channels reply to commenters, and they dont chase "likes" because their motivation is not to have million subscribers but healthy content. So these small channels activelly know what the subscriber is interested about, because thye read alot of comments. Food industry is similar......You can not directly ask them anything and you like their content because million people buy their stuff. These industries only watch algorithm andd statistics of interest, not the algorithm of what is healthy. thye neverask any customer directly what thye like. As big youtube channels or facebook channels never ask directly any single commenter, what they like, because they are only interested in numbers and statistic not the connection with people.

Betty you can do this. I was a huge sugar addict! I don't eat sugar of any form anymore, but still consider myself to be one, just like an alcoholic. I would hide candy wrappers in the trash so no one would see them. I'd binge eat sugar all the time. I've been carnivore two years and I've never been happier in my life. I've healed everything. Sugar is not tempting to me anymore, but I know that I can never have one drop or bite because it will bring all those cravings back big time. A cocaine addict can't finally become clean and then say, "Oh, I can just have a little in moderation, or every now and then.". That won't work. I know I'm an addict, so I stay away. Other people can eat it in front of me and it doesn't bother me, I don't want it. But I can never put it in my mouth. There are ways to overcome these cravings. Carnivores can help you and are a great support community.

Anecdotally, I've always been a sugar fiend and I've always had anxiety and depression. The only times I felt in control of my mental health were times I actively cut out added sugar and focused on eating whole, homemade foods. Once I start eating sugar, I find the cravings are intense, my mood changes, and I start sleeping poorly and feeling depressed - all triggering a desire for more sugar for that "uplifting" effect. It's wild. And the amount of sugar in our food supply is absurd.

Soft white wheat is more fluffy, but even hard red and hard white wheat isn’t anything at all like the so-called “whole grain” bread you can buy in the stores! It’s completely different!

It was a crazy time in my life, but from what I can remember, my diet was mostly meat and wheat. I am now plant based for some years and even fast now and then and do not drink and have removed refined sugar (but still a wholemeal bread addict). I think... I have narrowed it down to the Toxin caused by Smithii. I am about to attempt a combination of extended fasting and water kefir and probiotics. But I do not know what to do about my own immune system attacking my proteins.

But a sweet taste triggers dopamine. Similar risk of overeating. You have to wean yourself off the taste of sweetness by including more bitter foods in your diet. Your taste buds will renew in a few weeks and sweet food will seem overpoweringly sweet. Edit. A sweet taste also spikes insulin

@@mikerudd4943 caffeine is a drug with side-effects. It’s not an essential nutrient. The body needs exactly zero caffeine. It ‘can be’ beneficial if you’re a pilot flying during an emergency and need a pick-me-up. It’s not something anybody should be consuming regularly. It’s beneficial the way nicotine is beneficial for somebody addicted to nicotine. If you don’t take it, you sure feel lousy.

@RC-qf3mp it is not so much the caffeine but the nutrients or natural chemicals. Tea and coffee. I think the most studied ingredient on the planet. Both good and bad results. Depends on the individual. I for one don't "need" it, but I do believe it helps my system. I have gone off of coffee many times and started again when finding out I had (had) NAFLD. I "believe " the coffee was one part of clearing my liver

Yes for sure I agree with the sweet taste and I am finding gradually I use less and crave less but just saying what works for me , bad eating habits is the hardest to reset especially sugar addiction or high carb eating for years , for me I am ok with stevia only use tiny amounts as ten times sweeter , some people can go cold Turkey and some take years to transition off processed foods and sugar if your are a stressed or unhappy person it can make it harder to wean off , so a healthier sweet taste like stevia would be at least a starting point .

@@qhride1 Yes, I use stevia and ethrytol in small amounts too. A lot of people use them to make regular sweetness desserts. I make sugar -free mug cakes and mash them up with a sprinkling of stevia. Those are on my good days when the requirement for sweetness is very low.. Unfortunately, I had some 'low sugar and high fibre' shop biscuits today. I thought I would only have a few after my meal but it was a bit more than that! Still addictive. Blood sugar is raging.

Net carbs are only five grams or something like that. Is this going to spike me it's loaded with fiber and has five grams protein. Thanks everyone❤
@judyjohnson96106 ай бұрын
All you need to do is a little research. Make it like 'the effect of adding protein to carbs on Glycemic Index" Don't let people tell you that bread acts the same as sugar. Generally, you will eat bread in combination with other foods. When they measure for the effect of various carbs on blood sugar, they give the carb by itself, not as part of a whole meal. So it's really a little misleading. Even protein will raise your blood sugar. I won't advise you as to the amount of carbs you should eat, but by experience, I find that my energy levels have much improved since I cut down to about 150 g in a day. No good news on the scale yet LOL

My husband has type 1 and I was thinking how this would apply to him. Probably same principles but instead of using a straight simple carb/sugar to bring up a low, using a whole food source (a few figs, etc). He was diagnosed at age 6, I can’t imaging getting such a late in life diagnosis.

He is currently on a low fat whole food plant based diet with good results. Cyrus has a degree in nutrition science and learned that fat increased insulin resistance. He has cut his insulin use by decreasing his fat intake even though he has a large intake of carbs.
