Sugar was killing me and it took a year to get over the major cravings.
Exposes the truth about eating sugar and how the sugar industry fights to keep those facts hidden. I have given up sugar for over a year now (I found it was triggering my fibromyalgia) and lost 40 lbs. No other change to my diet or exercise. Just removed white sugar. Which is no easy feat as it is literally in 90% of every processed food item you might buy. Have to ask ourselves, "Why is there added sugar in processed items that has never been required in the recipes we make at home?" Answer: Because it is highly addictive and the manufactures and the sugar industry know that if you get some into your body you will want more and more. Getting off of sugar was like just getting off of an opioid. All the same withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Took a year to finally get rid of the major cravings. Sugar is killing us and is every bit as dangerous (if not more so because little children are fed it from toddler age on up) then cocaine. By the way. I have had no pain (except for accidentally ingesting some) from my fibromyalgia since I gave up sugar on November 3, 2013.
