You've probably seen the corn, the television advertising on high-fructose corn syrup (sugar) is derived when a person something to eat, fructose, says her friend, "like sugar, is fine in moderation." However, when it comes to sugar, the supply of moderation can be difficult.
The problem of sugar, eat or not eat, has been controversial in recent decades. A careful reading of food labels shows that sugar in all its various forms(Dextrose, sucrose, fructose, corn syrup, etc.) is in hundreds of foods. This makes our consumption and frustration is inevitable if we are to reduce and use it in moderation.
In fact, it consumes more than half the American public for a pound of sugar per day or £ 180 for a year! Is it any wonder Americans are dangerously overweight and diabetes runs rampant in this country?
Years ago, when an innovative book Sugar Blues by William Duffy shockedanyone with the statement that sugar is a drug very addictive, like heroin, which causes diabetes, weight gain, tooth decay, cancer, connective tissue disease, and left us age faster. But we need the complex form of sugar, glucose to produce energy that fuels our body.
Today, although many times the replacement market sugar such as aspartame, stevia, are Splenda, xylitol, saccharin, Lo Han Guo, acesulfame, many of my patients are still at a loss, withSugar. Why? It may be that, as a nation, we are really addicted to it?
Let me do some things that I tell my patients about sugar, how it affects us and what we can do, do not let that control our lives with cravings and sabotage our weight, moods, or management the disease.
What's wrong with sugar?
Table sugar cane sugar or beet sugar is produced, should not, as a natural food that good for you? Not compromised by the time we are at the supermarket. Sugar isas this sugar cane or beets that all of their vitamins, minerals extracted and refined, and other nutrients, so that only sucrose. People are not able to process take place entirely in this form and sucrose as a result of many metabolic disorders, leaving most of the high sugar-acid residues. Here are some of the most important from a long list:
• impaired immune function - white blood cells do not function properly when exposed to an environment of sugar (acid). Diseases increaseFoothold in us and ultimately the power of our immune system and makes us sick.
• Degenerative - the acid high sugar causes inflammation of the skin and joints corrode and collagen, the connective tissue of our body. To break down the connective tissue, wrinkling and premature skin inflammation occurs in all joints.
• Obesity - Eating large amounts of sugar in the food we eat contributes directly to weight gain andDiabetes by creating a so called insulin resistance - the body has more problems and more insulin and so fat stores are used, especially around the waist, abdomen, where it becomes a problem for the liver and others.
• mineral leeching - Excessive intake of sugar can lead to osteoporosis causes bones leeching calcium and other minerals, so they are weak and likely to fracture.
• The peak adrenaline / blood pressure - Eat a refined sugarFood, like sweets, candies, etc., causes adrenaline to be released. Therefore, children are often hyper after eating sugar. But the adrenaline and the peak blood pressure caused by several points.
• Gastrointestinal disorders - refined sugar contributes to acid in the stomach and intestinal tract contribute to reflux disease and inflammation.
What can you do about Sugar addict?
Dependence that could occur would be after refined sugarin fact to be true. Take sugar from someone food for a few days and look at the mood and the flaring tempers and desires surface, such as drug and alcohol addicts going through withdrawal!
While we have to make the most complex form of sugar, glucose, our brain and body to function normally, we do not have to eat refined sugar to do so. You may as glucose and serotonin, a brain chemical important to feel good, adding a little 'work at the supermarketRead labels and those containing sugar on top.
Here's what you recommend my patients, "kick their habit of sugar and enjoy the immediate benefits and long term, using a detergent of a" slow burning fuels "in their bodies:
• Dump the cake: First, get rid of all commercial baked goods containing sugar. Look for "no added sugar" varieties or those sweetened with Splenda, even honey.
• White bread / white rice / white flour / cracker: Although white rice is notcontain refined sugar is transformed into a high glycemic sugar in your body. white bread, biscuits and all made from white flour are other foods high glycemic sugar once eaten quickly. Switch to whole grain products without high fructose corn syrup or sugar, rice cooked to a high protein pasta and sweet potatoes. These low glycemic starches, which provide the blood glucose slowly releases. They help your mood and sleep cycles to stabilize serotonin.
• BreakfastCereals breakfast cereals marketed contain many sugars. Go to things like oatmeal, oat bran, quinoa and wheat bran that sport a low glycemic index (55 or under), no hint of blood sugar, adrenaline, or blood pressure. No rice cereal.
• Limit juice to 4 ounces per day for commercially bottled fruit juices, as most are loaded with sugar. Instead, try to squeeze the juice of fresh oranges or tangerines, and do not add sugar! Or just eat a piece of fresh fruitinstead.
• Until the B-vitamins: Sugar cravings are in many ways, such as alcohol dependence rob the body of B vitamins, especially B1 (thiamine) and B12. Make sure that multiple contains a larger amount of RDA for this group of vitamins, since they are crucial to suppress sugar cravings.
• Power Down Caffeine: If you drink coffee, switch to decaffeinated coffee and artificially sweetened half. Caffeine can ignite spikes of insulin causing blood sugar to drop and createSugar cravings. If you drink coffee, do without the big chocolate chip cookies or muffins and fixed at the snack bar. Pack a snack rich in protein like nuts, sugar-free.
• Take a nap: people who crave sugar are often tired and need the jolt of energy, sugar gives them first. However, this has a rebound effect that chronic fatigue in fuels. Try to get at least 6-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night.
• Try some licorice-type found in food storesShops, not the candy aisle at the supermarket. This helps eliminate sugar cravings. It also comes in the form of tea.
• Probiotics and sugar cravings are often at a condition of Candida yeast in the intestine. Taking probiotics can be removed so as to cut refined sugar, the proliferation of Candida and cravings.
• Read the labels - sometimes sugar fructose hidden ingredients using alternative words such as dextrose and high fructose corn syrup. These are allSugar and have a very high glycemic index.
Although most can do without a hard habit of sugar is worth doing. It is not easy. It takes about five days for your body produce sugar to clean out your system and prevents desire so much.
After two weeks or so, your body to start with the idea that refined sugar is no longer on board, and you'll notice some positive changes. The skin appears firmer and clearer, the joints mustdo not feel so creaky that actually have more energy, sleep better and emotional highs and lows should stabilize. Best of all, you do not shake the feeling that i need to jump in the car at midnight for the next Drive-Thru for ice cream late at night or hit chocolate!
