Sweet Poison?

Sugar, especially refined, is considered to be 'empty' calories. This means that except fueling the body with immediately available energy it has no health or nutrition value.

Moreover, many studies cundctuted around the world have shown that high consumption of sugar can cause various illnesses from chronic constipation to diabetes.

Now before we excommunicate sugar from our life, we have to remember that our body works exclusively on sugar or if to be more exact glucose.

Sugar that comes from fruits or starches is not only not bad for you, it is essential for the energetic processes inside your body.

So eating sugar is okay?

Not quite, this is exactly the place where fat comes in to the picture.

A Deadly Cocktail

Our body knows how to utilize sugar very efficiently, the problem with sugar starts when it is mixed with fat.
When sugar with fat enters the body the body has trouble to absorb the sugar effectively.

The fat coats the receptors in your body that sense the amount of sugar in your blood and they can't excrete the right amount of the insulin hormone needed to absorb the sugar.

With time, these receptors get tired and stop working properly all together. This is when you get type 2 diabetes.

Now this mixture of fat and sugar is present in most sweet processed foods and that is what litterally turns them to poison.

Let's Break Up

The second you start eating sugar and fat sperately your metabolism starts picking up pace. Your receptors start working effectively again and you stop feeling heavy and tired after eating.

Here are a couple of tips you can use to separate fat and sugar -

Check the ingredients

Look at the small letters on the box of sweets your buying if there is fat there just put it down and pick up something fat free.

The best strategy is to swap processed deserts all together and buy things like jams or honey for dessert and as a secondary benefit you will eat less preservatives and chemicals.

Use less Oils and Fats

Avoiding the mix of sugar and fat is pretty challenging but a good strategy to use is just lower the amount of fats in your food.

Try to cut at least in half all the fats you add to your food. Instead of adding a whole stick of butter to the dough just cut in half.
You will save a lot of calories and make your body digest and absorb sugars more effectively.

Eat More Fruit

Fruit is awesome for your body. Vitamins and minerals, fiber and a sweet fresh taste.

Try to get an apple or a banana instead of the snickers bar you snack on.
On your coffee break try to eat a couple of medjool dates instead of the usual biscuit.
