A Few Scary Facts About Sugar…
It has been estimated that the average person now consumes up to 100 pounds of sugar per year!
Yup, you read that correctly. As crazy as it may sound, it is not so surprising once you realize that virtually all of the processed foods purchased in any grocery store or supermarket contain added sugars (which are are often hidden under complicated names).
And if you think that sugar is only present in candies, chocolates and ice cream; think, again. Sadly, the food industry has caught on to the fact that sugar is a pretty addictive substance.
And so to boost up their sales and profit, they started to hide it in most of the food products that we consume on a daily basis (especially the processed & packaged ones).
Here are some examples of where sugar can be hidden:
bread
juices (even if it says 100% natural )
tomato sauce
energy bars (even the so-called “healthy” ones)
nut butters & even hummus
baby puréed foods
condiments (ketchup, pickles…)
breakfast cereals (BIG TIME!)
processed deli meats …
This means that even if you wanted to reduce your intake of sugar on a daily basis, chances are you would unfortunately still be consuming a whole lot of it! Hence, why it is so important to help your body detox and reset from all of that sugar consumption. Don’t worry, though:

How removing sugars from my diet healed my skin & how it could positively impact your own health too!
When I first tried to remove all processed sugars from my diet a few years ago, I really did not think that it would have such a drastically positive impact on my health. But it did!
I used to deal with frequent breakouts/adult acne and despite trying everything out there (from changing my skincare regimen to my pillow cases), nothing really helped.
That was until, I looked at my nutrition… When I finally took care of that part of my lifestyle, I truly started to notice a difference. Especially, after removing processed sugars for a while. My skin totally cleared up!
On top of that, I also discovered that I had better energy throughout the day and much better sleep, too. These were the positive effects that I experienced with my own health, but here are some of the ones that you can expect after completing your first sugar detox:
- No More Crazy Sugar Cravings + Mood Swings: indeed, removing all processed sugars from your diet for 10 days will help to naturally balance out your blood sugar levels. This is turn will reduce, if not eliminate your sugar cravings and related mood swings.
