Sugarless Saturday: Things you need to know about Sugar Detox

Who doesn’t love anything made out of sugar? Right from chocolates, cakes, and ice creams to macaroons, sweets and so much more, any food item that has sugar in it can totally make you fall in love with it. But do you know, this love is not an endless love affair, and all you will get out of it is heartbreak.

While you may never want to cut ties with the sinful sugar, but the sooner you decide to dump sugar, the better it is for your health. But how can you? Doesn’t sugar follows, where you lead? Well, it’s high time you made your heart stone cold and gave up on that sugar love. And the best way to do is by a sugar detox.

Sugarless Saturday: Things you need to know about Sugar Detox

Whether you decide to take on a seven-day sugar detox challenge or go the hard way by following a rigorous 21-day sugar detox, it is entirely your choice. The entire idea is for you to get rid of the sugar addiction and know how bad sugar is for your health.

The first thing you will need to know is that if you think quitting sugar will be a cakewalk, you are highly mistaken my friend. It will be difficult, and there will be several times in between when you will simply want to hog an entire chocolate cake. Here’s where you will need to be strong and ensure that nothing makes you quit.

While it may sound like three weeks will help you turn your eyes away from that Nutella jar the moment you see it, it will not happen. You will need to keep following this sugar detox diet until you don’t feel butterflies in your stomach when you look at a chocolate donut. Sounds terrible doesn’t it?

The best thing about a sugar detox will be the changes you will experience in both your body and mind. Not only will you lose a lot of weight but you will also see a positive change in your mental health. You will feel stress-free, and you will most likely end up smiling a lot more than you usually do. Not to forget, your body will be able to fight those deadly diseases in a much better way.

You also need to know that after a while you may not want to continue with this whole detox thing. Even if you don’t just make sure, you at least significantly reduce your sugar intake. Replace sweet items with fruits. Instead of adding sugar to your diet, go for natural sugar items.

Just try it out for a bit and you will see the difference. The dramatic change in you will automatically give you the strength only to say no to sugar and yes to good health. After all, it’s all in the mind.
