CRAVING TOO MUCH SUGAR?

LEARN WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW!!!

Did you know that the average American consumes more than 120 lbs of sugar per year, which is approximately 45 tsps per day?

Do you remember hearing that breakfast is the most important meal of the day? Think about how you feel when you skip breakfast. Your body's fuel supply begins to run very low and you wind up running on fumes. So, you grap a high-calorie muffin or chocolate bar later in the morning, just when you start feeling really, really hungry. What happens then? This snack causes insulin to dump out of the pancreas into the bloodstream, as the body attempts to process the surge in blood glucose from the snack you just ate.

Unfortunately, this pattern is repeated throughout the day. A graph of the average person's blood sugar levels would show sharp spikes-both highs and lows-in every 24-hour period. Eventually, the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas wear out. The result is consistently high levels of blood glucose which is called diabetes.

Diabetes can cause many serious health issues and is associated with obesity, heart disease, and increased mortality.

First line treatments in blood sugar balance include lifestyle modifications with weight loss as the goal.
