This Is Your Brain On Sugar | Amy Reichelt | TEDxYouth@Sydney

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2016
- As a neuroscientist, Amy is fascinated with how our brains control our behaviours in our dynamic and changing world. Things we eat, like junk food also affect our brain. Dopamine is released when we eat junk foods, this makes us feel good and crave more, but we risk becoming sugar dependant.
Amy is an Australian Research Council Research Fellow and lecturer at RMIT University. Her research seeks to explore how the brain controls our behaviour and understanding the mechanisms by which our experiences in the environment can shape our responses to events.
A major focus of her research is how our modern day diets full of soft drinks and junk foods can change our brains besides just making us overweight. Our brains not only make us want to eat more of these foods, but these foods are damaging areas critical for forming memories and behavioural control.
Amy tries to explain these neuroscience discoveries on radio, TV and print, as well as to general audiences at scientific communication events such as National Science Week.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

And for people who argue that it's expensive, even though I can argue how it's now, just think about this:
"Pay the farmer now, or pay the doctor later" -Emily Fletcher
👍
Yes....and.......have a much better quality of life while you are alive!!
You don't even need to pay anyone, we have wild vegetables growing in our own back yard.
They are free from pesticides, organic and fresh. The most common is the dandelion, the root is great for the liver and gallbladder & leaves is great for the kidneys.
Persuaded me😂
@@pumpkinking365 how does it taste?
I love the science and evidence here. It's absolutely indisputable. However, I disagree that junk foods should be treated as rewards. Definitely as occasional foods, but surely treating them as rewards strengthens the addiction to them as our body links them to feeling good?
Agree. I became healthiest in my mindset when I began looking at healthy foods as rewards. Junk foods cannot be a reward if they cause us poor health. The true reward is health and long term happiness.
We're all different. No doubt scientifically no junk food at all is best. Some people may feel overwhelmed and discouraged by the thought of total abstinence. Others may get hooked back on junk food again if they have just a little of it. However you can make your own diet better..

How do you get off sugar if it’s “everywhere”?
@@Reree-gz5bg +1
i’ll be like you starting today
I will also stop sugar from today... God plz grant me and others the power to live without processed sugar for healthy mind!!! Amen
Amen
Amen!
@@anithamsangi4797 amen
It says something that we have to pray to god for strength. It is like a drug
You never gona he able to completely shut out sugar, unless your a monk, so you should just focus more on increasing the good kind of food that feeds your body and just limit intake of treats. Thinking abt taking care of ur body works better than thinking abt restrictions in ur diet
for those body shaming her. let's remember she's a neuroscientist not a fitness instructor. Let people live.
elosmilealways She's preaching health and should do better. Maybe she had since 2016.
When I learned the truth about sugar I fixed my weight that year. 110lbs lost. No change in fitness routine
Dang Vergo! How do you feel now and what did you do to lose it?
@@paleexercise8314 I started Paleo. Didn't really know what I was doing yet so I had few things to eat. It'd be bacon/eggs in the morn and chili I cooked at night. Big servings of everything.
I kept it off as I developed variety into the diet and stopped 'needing' cheat days. Major benefit is living each day with a clear head, like you're firing on all cylinders. You become aware of all that goes on around you. And it's uncomfortable eating sugar or carbing up because you end up back at your old normal with the knowledge you can feel much better. Feels like getting hit with a bad cold but it lasts as long as you continue caving to cravings
@@ResilientME u disgust me
Uh, she's gorgeous
I was just on my way to McDonald's because I was craving it. And then u mentioned avocados and omega 3s............and then I remembered why I started my weight loss journey in the first place. Thank you
@M D Well he's getting/striving for a healthy life.
Good job for staying strong!
McDonald's have chemical in there food to make you addict
McDonalds is so unhealthy and everything is packed with sugar. Where I live, (CA) you could find a McDonald’s every mile away. Here you can find 5 different fast food options on one block. So much land that could be used for homes instead of stacking people in expensive storage racks and displaying all these death foods like an in person daily advertisement. I am not going to lie though, I also fall into the McDonalds trap. It feels like a trap! I pray one day we all learn to benefit the planet instead of deliberately destroying it, and learn to let go of what harms us. (instead of holding onto this weird fantasy that it is good and should be kept) We as a society struggle to let go from what poisons us, and I think the best solution to it is good riddance. generations pass before changes are made. I hate being in this generation. Hopefully soon we can all see that we CAN replace fast food restaurants with healthier options like farming fruits and vegetables, homes, schools, parks ect. If your attention can pay someone like on social media for example, so can the attention into this cause. People fear that so many will lose jobs if they got rid of the majority of fast food restaurants. Are you kidding? We could create more,! It’s just scary for most to let it go and make “drastic” changes like getting rid of McDonald’s. The fact that it’s drastic is a huge problem!
I was about to get pizza, but this video made me remember to have focus
Sugar is like alcohol. Some people can stop at just one. Many people cannot and need to abstain from it.
I agreed for what she said in the whole video but in the end, in her last words she told something really wrong and confirming how we'll never get out from this vicious circle if we keep thinking like this...
That we should treat junk food only as a reward. And now I'm asking you (I've read in another social this same simple question and it literally opened my mind like a big life' reveal)"Why do you have to consider a reward something it's literally killing you?
For me was more: Why should I consider junk food a reward when it was leading me straight to diabetes? Meditate folks 😊
She is not the only scientists. Moreover, having a really good desert once a month is fine. The problem is having desert with every meal, and not even knowing it…see flavored yogurts and salad dressings.
This 🙌🙌🙌 well said Patty 💜
Nothing tastes as good as being anxiety free. I won't go back to sugar ever.
She’s drop dead gorgeous

Nah

Yes she is.....
Thank you so much for your talk :) May we all recover from sugar addiction, overeating, undereating, anorexia, bulimia, , bulamorexia, orthorexia, bigorexia and any other eating disorder as well as overweight and obesity. We CAN do this. Together we are stronger and healthier
Wow,,,, Nikki,
You have a great heart.
Nikki, look into Food Addiction Reset.
Amen. :) 💜🌻
Great talk. Brain damage scares me - I don't want to live below my true potential, have problems performing in my job, or grow old and get alzheimer's disease. Really good to keep in mind the kind of lasting damage eating junk can cause - health is not just about a number on the scale which gives you the artificial impression that you can always "undo" bad eating by just losing some weight after you gain it. You can't.
I quit most sugar 3 weeks ago... I should have done it 25 years ago. My productivity has skyrocketed! I really can't believe how my focus has improved. I know everyone isn't the same... but if your focus improves 1/3 as much as mine has, it'll be worth it. Since I was a kid, I've eaten candy bars and/or big bags of gummies, nearly every day. Seems pretty harmless, but over the span of 30 years, your mind/body starts to fail on several fronts. I'd had brain fog for perhaps 10 years it seems... Unreal.
If you don't believe me, try sugar fasting for 2 weeks. Into the 2nd week you may feel a little down, but after week 2 your mind will pep WAY up, and you'll just be extremely energetic... an engaged focused kind of energetic.
I did it 4 weeks ago ! Didn't really quit all sugars but lowered it by more than half. And cut all industrial bars and cakes. My skin is cleaner, my mouth feels less charged, and I think I have a clearer mind too, that's why I looked for 'sugar brain effect' on youtube probably like you ! I still loose my keys, phone etc.. still double check if I locked my doors but I feel less smoggy than before overall. I planned to buy some ped drugs because I had nothing to loose regarding to my situation
David I think it's withdrawals.. Getting to the second week is key.. But that time before ... When the cravings keep coming and those demogorgons keep wanting their sugar lol.. Hellish
Best thing ever happen to me..Stopped eating sugar/Junk/Fast foods..Started IFast OMAD..And dont even care for cheat/comfort days.
Going shopping in a major supermarket when you are on a health journey for unadulterated foods reminds me of those little brain challenges of "can you find the rabbits hidden in this picture?" After we have found maybe half of them, (food in a produce section and meat counter) we have to look harder, (by reading labels in canned, frozen and packaged goods). We might still be missing some. The food industry puts us through an obstacle course the minute we walk through the door. Junk food is interspersed throughout the apple display (caramel coating kits, apple pie crusts) all through the veggies (sour cream dips, bacon sprinkles, vegetable snacks) and through the cheese and meat aisles (instant pizza dough, cheese in a can, chili mixes loaded in sugar, white flour buns). We are stalked at the end of each aisle with cake mixes, refined oil, snacks, cereals and candy. They say to shop on the perimeter of a store to avoid all the tainted food in the middle of the store, but they are two steps ahead of us. Even in a health food store they do it. To stay healthy, you must be selective in your viewing, eat before shopping or going to a place that will sabotage your good intentions. It's everywhere.
It's hard to resist, perhaps, but not impossible. Better to give it a pass. I have, since March 2016. I feel so much better.
sugar is poison
Its toxic😵
no better way to state that
when i was a little girl my dad would say that sugar is a toxic material, I sure wish i would have listened. He was beyond his years and they didnt have google back then.
@Piercing Light oh it is! Big time
*Added refined* sugar is poison
Great talk. I'm desperately trying to get me and my teenagers off sugar. I have even more of a reason. Trying to be healthy in the west is so difficult sugar is everywhere.
I am 76 and weighed 235 on March 1, 2017. After watching FOrks over knives, I vowed to never eat another animal product or processed food again. Today, May 29th, I am now 207 pounds, no longer take medication for blood pressure or diabetes or cholesterol. I am total vegan. Sugar is toxic and it will send you to an early grave.
First, stop eating animal products including meat, pork, chicken, fish and dairy including milk, icecream cheese etc.Eat only plants. The first problem with eating animals is they have no fiber. When you switch to plants you will visit the toilet much more frequently and rid your body of toxins.
Next, animals do not have the MICRO nutrients our bodies need to heal themselves (Let food be thy medicine - Hypocrates). Doctors do not get trained in nutrician and upon graduactioin become pawns of the pharmacudical industry. If doctors would prescibe broccoli instead of the poisons the prescribe, there would quckly become a health epidemic instead of an obesity epidemic. Anyone interested in becoming healthy (by losing 50 pounds and keeping it off) should look for plant based doctors on youtube who have been reversing heart disease and diabetes for the past three decades by switching from pills to plants. Check out Dean Ornish, Noel Fuhrman, John McDougall, Mike Greger, Caldwell Esselstyn and his Dr son Rip, Neal Barnard, Garth Davis, Alan Goldhammer, Travis Stork, 98 year old Dr. Wareham, Ted Barnes and so many others. Stop paying for your doctor's BMW and making the drug companies rich. In 2004 science finally found the proof to show that sugar is 8 times more addictive than cocain. Read your food labels and you will notice that ALL processed food contains added sugar. So do not eat processed foods. Plants will heal what is wrong with you and your teenagers. Smooties are a great substitute for sugary foods. There is a big difference between the sugar added by corporations to make money and the fruit nature provides.
Simple fix; switch to a rice based diet.
@@glensmall9194 brown rice.. Precisely
Lynne Jackson.. When ever i crave for sugar or sugary foods.. I eat dates or jaggery.. And trust me.. It works.. Everytime 😊
vistagraphsnet meat is good for you as long as it’s organic and pasture raised. Eggs are a superfood and are packed with many micronutrients. Giving up dairy is understandable, as it can be harmful to many people and, from nature’s perspective, we aren’t really meant to consume it. Research the carnivore diet. There are plenty of people who eat nothing but meat and are very healthy. Look at eskimos: they’ve been eating strictly meat forever and they were just fine! There are studies showing that those who consume no fiber have the most regular bowl movements. Also, Forks Over Knives has some questionable science, particularly the claim that dairy acidifies the bloodstream.
I’m not saying to give up your vegan diet. If it works for you than I’m all for it! But giving up all animal products isn’t necessary to live healthily. We can agree that processed food and sugar must be cut out of the diet, and I can agree that animal products can be extremely unhealthy depending on it’s processing and how the animal was raised.
Best of luck too you!
It's not the brain that controls our behavior; It's what we eat. What we eat controls the brain.
Our microbiome communicates what they need.

Artur Czekalski D.C.
Yes, she is somehow weird, but very interesting :)
I don't think so. But everyone has their own tastes. :-)
I think the key is to practice fasting. Once you get comfortable going long periods of time without eating, the idea of a sugar snack becomes very undesirable. You seek and crave foods you know will sustain you for the next 6 to 8 to 12 hours. Even fruit becomes undesirable if you plan to go long periods without eating.
Sounds like waiting for true hunger to hit. That's great and all but don't acclimate yourself to fasting everyday either. I truly believe the problem is that people aren't eating ENOUGH. Eat more vegetables, healthy soup, lean meats, whole grains, healthy fats, and FISH. People get lazy. Don't prepare ahead of time and then you are left with unhealthy choices. Or they get wrapped up in a diet mentality.
Ari Lehnen I mostly agree with you, but you can be a healthy vegan too. Actually its much easier to be a healthy vegan than an omnivore for most people.
Snake diet!!!
@@arimonL
Agree with you about people being lazy, and therefore making unhealthy dietary choices. However, with few women at home; with no home-ed classes in school, and no example to learn from; many do not know how to cook anymore.
Lean meats are not healthy to consume.
Yes, fasting is the best and easiest way to clean out and reset the body - taste buds included - at no cost.
According to SCIENCE OF FASTING documentary, there now are fasting clinics in Germany.
Listened to MD Jason Fung and Alan Goldhamer D.C. and became a faster - hooked for life!
I’m in the U.K. I was eating Yorkie chocolate bars that had 27g of sugar. I started with one per day and soon progressed to 6 bars per day. That’s 162g of sugar per day just for the chocolate. It doesn’t include the other food I eat daily. This went on for about 2-3 weeks. Yikes! When I started to have trouble doing up my trousers I knew I had to stop. I have now stopped it and don’t eat any at all. It’s addictive. I know from experience.
I disagree with the conclusion: we should not treat junk food as a "reward". This implies that everything else you eat isn't as tasty and that you avoid junk food only because you should, instead of doing it because you want. That's not going to last. The key here is to find healthy foods which you enjoy eating. Believe me, there are plenty and there are many ways to prepare them to make them even tastier. Once you find healthy foods you like and start having them consistently, you will find yourself instinctively - not forcedly - avoiding junk food.
I agree 100%. That was exactly the transformation I went through, 2.5 years ago.
I remember not being able to resist any sweets or junk food as a child. I would eat ALL of it...fortunately the control has improved with age even though it is still challenging.
Excellent talk!

Thank you Amy. Great Science. I like evidence based knowledge. It's fun.
If you appreciated this video, you may also want to know that while marketing makes you think brown sugar is more natural than white sugar, the only difference is that brown sugar is turned to white sugar by adding phosphate! And when it comes to gut health, brown and white sugar have similar effects!
Brilliant talk, clearly explained and presented.
If you loved this talk, you may also want to know that For overall health and preventative care, it's beneficial for everyone to keep added sugar intake under the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommendation of 25 grams per day added sugar. This is the same as 6 teaspoons per day!

Very interesting information. Thank you, Amy!
If you liked this information, you may also want to know that the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends consuming no more than 25 grams per day (or 6 teaspoons) of added sugar. This is the amount of added sugar found in 1 cup of most orange juices, 1 container of yogurt, a 3 inch donut 2 tablespoons of honey barbecue sauce, or ½ a small brownie!
That is illuminating! I don't mind her use of rewards, I'm trying really hard to abstain from sugary/sweet foods but it's not possible 100% of the time. I'm interpreting it to mean one-offs or very infrequent rather than I've done something good here's my reward. It's my Dad's 80th in a couple of weeks and there will be birthday cake so sure letting myself have that. But I'm not having a cake every day I think is the point!
In moderation is key word.
Thanks
I loved this Ted talk! Thank you for presenting to us!
Amazing speaker and speech !!! Thank you so much, I’m constantly sharing !!!!!
Excellent point. Treating junk food as a reward, just like our brain treats them, as opposed to a major part of our diet.

*Pure, white and deadly* by John YUDKIN. A book about the health effects of sugary food and drink.
Thanks for sharing Anne
Downloaded that the other day along with The Diabetes Code by Dr Jason Fung
Read the book of John Yudkin, John Yudkin deserved the credit for predicting well. Sugar consumption has gone too high. Ancel Keys got the credit instead. Favouratism is everywhere.
@@juless3568 Ancel Keys was given a lot of money by the sugar industry.
@@youtube_username_ That explains why he was given the credit.
I went zero carb 8 months ago. It was harder than quitting smoking, alcohol, or caffeine (which I all did in the past)
Practical Keto addresses this and so much more.
There we go
Excellent, Bravo!
It's great when you give up carbohydrates altogether. It does wonders for your health and we don't all eat junk food.
Hahaha, good joke. And nobody responded yet! Yes, give up all carbs completely...and you'll have no worries about anything, ever again!
It depends on how intolerant you are to carbs, and also on one's age? Finances also plays a role.
Carbs (even if just a minimal amount) are needed for your neurons and neuromuscular junctions. I hope you’re still eating fruit and veggies though, because those are carbs and very important. I’m not trying to be mean at all, I just want us all to stay healthy ❤️
@@maricamaas5555 Excuse me, I don't see where finance plays a role at all. You can eat nothing but sausages and mince patties and eggs for a week, they really don't cost much. I mean add a bit of cheese and a bit of cabbage or lettuce and tomato if you like and you have a burger without the bun. So how hard is that?
@@toni4729
According to my limited knowledge (stand to be corrected); many of the poor all over the world are on vegetarian/vegan type diets - with subsidised, refined carbs at the base; this because of neccesity, not choice.
Ignorance also plays a role, since the high carb narrative had been drummed into the populace over decades, and is still well established within RD circles?
As you point out: Cutting out the cheap, processed, refind substances in favour of healthy whole foods is achievable though. By taking up regular fasting, and thereby saving some money, MD Jason Fung and Megan Ramos reports how their patients are then able to invest in more wholesome foods.
i hope i remember this
🍀
I have started to no longer eat processed or added sugar. I’m only eating natural sugar that is in fruits. Hopefully I can stick to it.
Everything was good until her last sentence about using/thinking of these foods as a reward...really don't think that plays well into this at all.
SecretSqrlGrl007 i thought it was fine - confusion. It was appropriate.
I agree. Sugar is not a reward.
I agree completely as per my comment
sugar as a reward , meaning sugar when taken from natural sources, such as fruits and unprocessed foods, then yes, it must be considered as a reward...
I was thinking once a year in the form of birthday cake.
yeah i wonder if quitting sugar is like quitting dope. I have been really cutting back. I find that I get weak moments when I really just want to eat some kind of pick me up food. Then if I do, I bounce back, and feel a little too good. My brain rewards sugar ingestion a little too much. It's so addicting and available and processed for max effect.
I NEVER TOUCH IT!!!!
its so odd to me that as a society we look upon poor choices in food or other things as a "reward"
Damn that’s deep
follow up question: how often should we reward ourselves with a sugary snack? does non sugar "junk food" have the similar effect on the brain?
Treating them as rewards deals with delayed gratification. Use these food s as reward when you achieve something like completion of a task rather then using them as staple food. This in term reduce their comsumption. Junk food as a cheat day food rather than an everyday food
Interesting science, but I believe in abstaining from flour and sugar altogether. After a while, substituting protein snacks for any kind of sweet snacks, my cravings are all but gone. Currently, I am at day 111 of no flour or sugar and if I were to slip I would be trying to get back on track as soon as possible.
Did the research showing lower levels of neurogenesis in rats following a high fat diet accurately monitor the quality and type of fat? Given that fats can be beneficial or damaging if this wasnt done it would call the results into question as other good research involving natural fats,unprocessed has demonstrated the opposite on multiple occassions.Other research has also,indicated that the ratio and quality and indeed the food window over a 24 hour period are all significant factors.I believe that emphasis on only one element and in a non specific manner is partly responsible for the high degree of confusion felt by the general public.It can be more detremental to public health to emphasise incomplete isolatory hypothesis as history has already proven.
I could have given you the right answer but today I am too tired
Stopping intake sugar 15 days n go on
I thought dopamine stimulation led to LESS dopamine receptors
Insightful
If you liked this video, you may also want to know that The way that sugar affects the gut depends upon quantity and your individual health. If you’re struggling with candida, for example, sugar can make your symptoms worse!
How long after we stop eating sugar can the inflammation process wear off?
I admit I'm addicted cuz of Memory concentration and focus especially attention problems all linked to ADD
I got rid of sugar and I feel better
well, ive been consuming lots of sugar on my diet.... therefore, my memory span is always undermining me. Thanks for letting me know how I can restore my memory capacity.

Its further worse actually
I'm so glad I was raised in the sixties, before most of the poison was on every corner and delivery didn't much exist
It's inspirational Good Video and I'm SICK
Everytime I have a Mcdonalds I feel ill
I am having difficulty with my short term memory although I had times when that wasn't a problem at all, and recently i have been eating lots of fruits in my diet. And i am having trouble to concentrate on doing tasks like answering language learning related questions.
Great
At the beginning of this video, young neuroscientist teach us sugar is causing brain damage. At the end of this video she teach us to eat high sugar food to help our brains. Thanks for this GREAT and clever advice.
Last sentence!!
Maybe im weird because i like feeling hungry. I save my hunger to control a portioned meal
Interesting with all that she said and how harmful sugar is to the brain, poison food should be considered a reward?
Nice
I don't get this effect when eating junk food. I never really want it. I love my coffee in the morning, but I'd never ever be able to stomach a donut. I do get the dopamine rush when I exercise, though.
I thought we decided pizza isnt that bad depending what you put on and who makes it.
Thin crust lots of veges.
Does this include sugar from fruits as well and carbohydrates?
Surely the number of dopamine receptors decreases with sugar addiction? Not increases?
Exactly, it decreases not increases. The more they increase, the more our perception of the world becomes HD like.
@@EvilZeroSc It floods your brain with dopamine, causing an increase in receptors. So the number of dopamine RECEPTORS increases too. Like a drug, it then takes more and more and more dopamine to satisfy the increased number of receptors to reach the same effects, and you become desensitized to larger amounts of sugar. Sometimes it really is a bit HD like, as the growing receptors let you take more and more dopamine in. The crash after that is not fun though
For some reason I can’t get over how beautiful she is...
it's those eyes brah
This is how women use to look before mass media mind control brainwashed us to believe super-thin is healthy. Women were also fertile then.
Right?
i know right?
Maybe she’s using a public speaking technique of focusing on the audience as just a random bunch of colours - this makes it feel like they’re by themself so they feel more comfortable
First time i watched it 2 weeks ago, I immediately ordered lots of junk, I had a bad impulse to just eat whatever I wanted.
Then 2 days after that, I watched a similar talk and again ordered, but this time, I didn't really know what to order. After thinking hard, I ordered 2 chicken burgers.
I remember what changed was that I got sick of feeling low energy,
I now eat for nutrition or nourishing my body and thats so easy.
I remember the feeling of opening the app and thinking - because I had a choice to eat anything - that finally 2 burgers and I'm like thats it.. I actually don't want it.
Since that day, I've cut all junk, no sugar. Just on a low carb plant based diet & I love it.
The message I wanna say is there probably is a timing, an impulse which wants to be served, once you've that choice that I can have it, but I don't wanna feel that way plus the vegetables taste so good.
Believe me vegetables are sweet too, once you cut out sugar.
So really, watch these videos, let us see a day where you actually confront yourself that yes.. it's over.. this food isn't actually a big deal, so I'm gonna cut it and start with a healthy lifestyle diet..
Hope you have the patience to test yourself daily..

How to detoxify sugar from the system video
sugar is amazing. keeps my fitness on another lovel. keeps you moving. what about all the africans and asians eating lots of carbs and using white sugar in their tea. lean and healthy am I wrong?
Ted, watch some more videos about sugar, especially ones by Robert Lustig. Carbs are fine but added sugars are a big problem.
@@youtube_username_ isnt he obese?
Been off sugar completely and consuming a better balanced healthier diet. Bloating problems gone, have more energy, less hunger, less food need to become full, can walk an hour straight without any weakness.
Do not lose weight to become healthy. Eat healthier to lose weight. And also avoid sugar and any professed foods and sodas!
I've started going sugar free. Today is 1 week.
@@BeingBetter also try lower carb. Some curbs are worse than sugar.
I'm avoiding white rice and white flour.
Keto diet brings down the inflammation in your body and resets your brain. Good fats are essential for your brain. I recommend intermittent fasting and extended fasting as it’s great for your body and brain.

your brain responds to refined flour in the same way it responds to sugar.
Of course - carbs in excess (and refined carbs especially) act in the same way as sugar.
Sugar is a carb, is it not?

I was eating a icecream Snickers bar while watching this. Now I feel guilty. But not TOO guilty, because icecream Snickers bars are REALLY good. Plus, I only have them every so often. . .
Soon you would be.....
Exactly, moderation
I feel like to have sugar when I feel stressed and when the sugar level in my body is low. But I noticed that when I have Amway protein powder, I will become less carving for sugar.
People get faint and say they are "hypoglycemic" and have to have sugar; that's because they need to ween themselves off of it. I used to feel the way you describe when stressed. I am not one of those people who can have a little "treat" because I fall right off the wagon. I like the view of having a "basket" of foods that I can choose from that is healthy. It may be different for different people, because many of us cannot afford organic everything, but we make the best choices we can within a budget. If Amway protein powder helps you have steady blood sugar, hurrah!
Because it has some kind of sugar in it
Cmoon can't I eat my italian grandma's pie? Naaah. I think balance is the word. Too much of anything is bad. A bit of chocolate in the morning is just making me a happier man
Not eating sugar never anymore
The first three weeks are the hardest. After that, your body doesn't crave it any more.
