In being addicted to sugar, you don’t eat it only when you need something sweet. You eat it all the time. You crave it. You drink more coffee to get it. You crave it in the bleachers, on the playground, behind your back, behind your ears, sneakily in your mouth when you think people aren’t looking and even sneakily when you’re doing work. You cannot control yourself, your only escape is the treat.
Overcoming sugar addiction is a part of kicking an addiction. Like any other addiction, you need support. You need to heal your body and your mind. Youradder problems can be caused by malnutrition, not just by too much sugar in your diet. Stop the nausea, palpitations, exhaustion, and feeling of loved ones dying in your stomach. Your life is at risk. You may never recover. What used to happen to me once, may happen to you. Please do not visit this article if you are suffering from a thyroid disorder. If you are pregnant or nursing, please see your doctor before beginning any natural supplements.
When you are ready to stop the sugar addiction, you need to forgo all sugar, preferably organic and natural and you need to stick with the program. The best way to start is with a liquid vitamin. There are many organic and natural softgels. Look in your bathroom section in the health food store for them or go to the internet. Health stores should have them at least in the drugstore. They should also have organic, no sugar added, most juices, and grape juices with no added sugar. As a last resort, you can buy the small pre-made drinks. These will give you what you need until you are ready to add the real thing.
Here are some of the problems that will manifest when you have too much sugar in your diet. You may not think about these, but there are obvious signs:
You should cut down on sugar and you should start to use sweeteners in moderation. If you have a hypoglycemia, keep your intake low when you first begin to drink them. You will not have the hypoglycemic event unless you have normal insulin secretion. Keep your intake low before the event too. If you don’t need it, don’t use it.
When you get high, do you have the strength to say, it’s not the sugar, it’s the alcohol in the brain? It’s very convenient to just say that it’s hypoglycemia.
You should start to use stevia in commercial drinks. Stevia is a natural herb. It’s sweeter than sugar, but people who use it as a sweetener don’t have to worry about it being dangerous.

How much does the quality of food really matter? If you eat food that tastes good, your life will be better. If you eat food that tastes bad, your life will be worse. The difference between good and evil is partly subjective: what tastes good to me might taste bad to you. The difference is also partly objective: what restaurants I think serve good food might serve lousy food to you. But if we stick to objective measures — measures such as how much weight people gain or lose — we can cut through some of the subjectivity.
