The Pros and Cons of a ‘No Sugar Diet’ & If It’s the Right Thing For You
As hard as it is, eliminating added sugars could save your life
In my 20’s and 30’s, I had a very deep, embedded and obsessive connection to sugar.
As a younger girl, I loved eating sugar-filled desserts and biscuits and would put lots of sugar in my coffee.
I would be the type of person putting in 4 tiny packets of sugar and caramel syrup.
Unsurprisingly, I had no sugar filter and lost my taste buds for a long time. I had forgotten what natural foods tasted like since I had a fur-like texture on my tongue.
To this day, I wonder how I didn’t develop type two diabetes.
I was extremely lucky, in one way, that I turned my life around once bodybuilding became more of an obsession for me than sugar.
To eliminate sugar, I spent nine months battling moods, depression and cravings like a drug addict.
You could say I was a drug addict -but my choice of attaining a sense of being ‘high’ derived from having copious amounts of sugar!
