    How to Cleanse The Body of Excess Sugar Naturally

    By: Lisa Patrick

    Chapter 1- Why is a Sugar Detox Necessary?

    Refined sugar, in excess, has been linked to a number of different ailments, including weight gain, and an increased risk for liver and heart disease, and many others. Sugar is found in everything from breakfast cereals and bread, to many condiments such as ketchup and barbeque sauce, and even health foods such as protein bars and yogurt! Simple sugars, the natural sugars found in milk or whole fruits, have not been shown to exhibit the same affects on the body as refined sugars. This is because the protein, nutrients and fiber in milk and fruits slows down the consumption of sugar into the blood stream. So, please note, the word sugar refers to refined sugars only.

    Refined Sugars

    Sugar can sometimes be masked in many of the foods you consume. Because it is worded under different names other than sugar, you may have a hard time recognizing sugar in your diet. Below is a list of some of the words used to describe sugar in food products. Be especially mindful if any of these ingredients are listed as the first few ingredients! As a general rule, the farther away these ingredients are the better. This simply means, the farther away the ingredient is, the less of the ingredient used in the product.

    Sugar and Weight Gain

    Sugar causes insulin, the hormone responsible for excess energy to be stored as fat, levels to increase, thus leading to an increased number of fat cells, thus leading to an increase in body weight. Sugar can also contribute to weight gain, because it does not contain nutrients; it is an empty calorie, therefore, you can consume large amounts of it, without feeling satisfied.

    Sugar and Liver Disease

    Sugar and alcohol have been shown to have the same affects on the liver. Research shows evidence that fructose and glucose in excess, can have the same toxic affect on the liver as ethanol, the alcohol in alcoholic drinks. This means that sugar too, can slowly deteriorate of the liver.

    Sugar and Heart Disease

    Research has shown that a specific molecule, glucose metabolite glucose 6-phosphate, in sugar can adversely affect the pumping mechanism of the heart, thus increasing your chances of heart failure. When too much sugar is built up, GPS adds up, causing more stress on the heart. According to the Center for Disease Control, more than half the people diagnosed with heart disease, die within a year.

    Sugar and other Ailments

    As sugar causes dips in insulin levels, sugar has been linked to mood swings, depression, migraines, and poor eyesight. Sugar has also been linked to auto immune diseases such as (arthritis and multiple sclerosis), gout, and osteoporosis.

    Sugar Addiction

    Because sugar can induce a feel good high, it can cause you to crave it, which can lead to a sugar addiction. In fact, sugar has even been compared to a drug, in that it gives you a high, then just like a drug when it wears off, cause you to crash and become fatigued. The American Heart Association recommends a daily sugar intake of no more than about 100 calories, or 6 teaspoons, for women, and about 150 calories, or 9 teaspoons, for men. But, even then, the daily consumption of even a small amount of sugar can lead to increased sugar tolerance, which puts you at risk for consuming even more sugar.

    Before you know it, you have become one of the candidates for many of the sugar related ailments listed above. Some signs you are addicted to sugar include: you may let loose and eat more than you planned, you may feel bad when you miss your daily sugar fix, you may have low blood sugar symptoms such as feeling nervous, shaky or have a cold sweat. If by chance, you have found yourself in one of these situations, because of high sugar consumption and want to get out, a sugar detox can help.

    Why Sugar Detox

    A Sugar detox can help eliminate sugar from your body, and help reduce your cravings for sugar. It can also help you develop more healthy eating habits, by slowly eliminating your sugar intake, replacing high, sugary sweets with vegetables, fruits, and other healthier choices, which will help detox, or flush, sugar from your body. Once you have succeeded at reducing your sugar cravings, you can slowly begin to incorporate healthy sugars back into your life, which is occasionally, and not every day. In fact, it is said that once you start to incorporate sugar back into your diet, the sugary treats that used to just taste sweet, will taste even sweeter, which makes you want less of it.
