I think it’s actually more interesting watching it with people who don’t have a huge sweet tooth. I have a giant sweet-tooth and it’s obvious that it’d be difficult for me, but this shows that there’s added sugar in everything that even people who don’t have a sweet tooth are affected
@alchemistdreams5 жыл бұрын
x8Sophie Yeah I think it’s more interesting too although it wouldn’t hurt to get another perspective. I always thought I wasn’t big on sugar. I don’t like candy, am not crazy about any other sweets except the pint of ice cream I get through every 6 months. The level of sweetness of packaged and restaurant desserts is oftentimes gross to me. However, when I started tracking the amount of added sugar I was having I realized that it was in a lot of savory foods. Even if I’m making a dish at home, sometimes I still struggle with leaving the sugar out because I just feel like it’s missing that extra oomph. The only way I could see cutting it out completely is either using a zero calorie natural sweetener or sweet whole foods like applesauce (homemade only), pineapple, dates, etc.

There’s a difference between “sugar” and “added sugar”. Sugars like Maltose is a natural sugar. You find this in things like organic honey, agave, and even fruits! You’d have to look at the ingredient list or look at labels that have the new label that have the “added sugar” section. Added sugar is typically refined, white sugar. Remember- a little bit of sugar is good but it’s about balance.

It is addictive, but not nearly as much as people think. If you were addicted to sugar you'd probably be fine eating sugar cubes as it is no one is out there overdosing on sugar cubes and chances are unless you have compulsion issues most people aren't going to see a sugar cube and just eat it. For further explanations, it's best to read science articles that also relate back to the original studies that many of these "experts" cite: behavioralscientist.org/no-sugar-isnt-new-heroin/ instead it mainly counts it as a mild case of substance disorder since it doesn't stop you from living your life like say heroine would. Also keep in mind as the article states most studies were conducted on rats and not humans.

I went to a local organic food store, and I found no sugar added options for things like ketchup, salad dressing, pasta, and other staples that generally have sugar in them. I didn't cut out simple carbs (sustainable change is more important than extreme change people!), so I've been doing things like making my own bread at home so that I can still enjoy the food I love. I've made some exceptions and eaten some thing that have a gram or two of added sugar per serving, and I've had one night where I went off the challenge because there weren't any other options at the event I was at. Not starving is more important to me than rigidly following a self imposed challenge, so I'm just proud of what I've accomplished so far. Hopefully I continue to have a successful month!

Iconic because the sugar companies blocked the FDA from listing a daily amount of sugar that should be consumed, and therefore there is no daily % listed unlike every other nutritional info category. They make things low fat, then there is no flavor, so they add sugar. News flash: fat is better for you than sugar, and if there was a sugar daily value, these companies would have to put 560% daily value on their products.

I quit added sugars back in 2011 when I was living in Japan. I binged on a bag of delicious Japanese chocolate pastry and realized I was addicted. So I cut it out and it was torture for a month and half. What helped was eating fatty foods, yogurts and bananas for sweetness. But since then, the cravings stopped and I never feel like I need to eat something sweet anymore. I still eat sweets and add sugar to add to flavor of cooking now but it's not excess anymore. I can do without too. I don't feel the need to buy desserts, snacks, or anything like that. So glad I made decision to cut that out.

Guys I did it. I used to love love sugar. But I cut it ALL OUT. I never really drank coke/soda bc it kinda hurts my tungue so I never had a problem with that. Buuut I love chocolate. So I stopped eating any sugar. And here is what happened: MY SKIN GLOWED UP. Like I used to have small bumps... GONE! Acne... GONE! My skin is smooth and glooowy. My weight decreased! I actually lost a lot of weight. And u actually feel better. People say that the chocolate gets u hyper and stuff, but the afterward effect just makes u fell full and glumly. Rather withought sugar just makes u feel good all the time. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND IT. But obiously don’t go to the extreme but yesss try it!

So I am a chocolate and candy fend and I did this challenge about 2 years ago. It was hell on earth! I made it to about 60 days sugar free and I probably would have carried on but I started my travel lifestyle and it became near impossible. The worst part was the headaches and shakes I had when I was going through sugar withdrawal. Definitely not a challenge for the faint of heart.

I'd like to see this no added sugar challenge with normal servings of complex carbs and fruit. It seems like a lot of your symptoms and the unsustainability of this is due to it being very nearly a "low carb" month.

Thank you for this experiment you two beautiful women! I'm never going to be able to quit sugar. As a Swiss person I'll become anemic without my chocolate:) But anyways it's the amount of things that makes the difference. Don't exagerate and enjoy the food you're eating. As for me - I eat cake, chocolate or ice cream on special ocasions. That way it's always something special. Eating should be about enjoying and sharing and not about dependence.

Sugar causes my autoimmune disease to initiate inflammation, bacterial infections, gastrointestinal issues, and chronic neurological pain, migraines, etc. If you have a chronic pain disorder, or a GI condition, definitely try cutting out sugar for a few months (including honey, agave, stevia and the "sugar free" sweet stuff. You'll be shocked how much better you're feeling as time goes on, and how bad you feel again when you eat that piece of cake or bowl of cereal. 🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄

@artyzara17995 жыл бұрын
Well, sadly it kinda is. I have a relative who has memory loss (like Alzheimer's, though it is not as bad yet), and her son is a doctor. She wants to sleep all the time and forgets the conversation we had like a minute ago. We discovered that it has to do with all the desserts and carbohydrates she eats, and how they affect the brain. One day, she had less carbohydrates than she usually has, and the differences were very observable. So actually, even though sugar is tasty, it can be a monster. (Sorry if that came off as aggressive, just trying to explain the case)

Yeah, the regular canned beans I get are beans, water and salt (and I'm in the US). I wonder if they understand that carbs are subcategorized as sugar, starch or fiber. And that lots of natural foods, besides fruit, already have sugar in them (like beans and carrots and bell peppers).
