Stop the sugar cravings


Ok, so one of the hardest thing to resist is sweet. And yes most of us has sugar cravings. There are just some people who can't stop this and there are ones that ended up in sugar addiction. I myself is sometimes guilty of these cravings. But how are we going to control this very unhealthy habit?


One of the things that will help you to stop this is to not take sodas. Soft drinks maybe one of your favorites but you really have to stop drinking it. Soft drinks does taste good but they are just not healthy so just cut them out. Remove them from your list and you are definitely helping yourself.

Another thing is to avoid Artificial sweeteners. Why? Based on research studies, these artificial sweeteners actually increase your sugar cravings, they increase your appetite, and it has aspartame, known to be very bad for your health.

Try not to buy those junk food and take it home. why? simply because if you have sweets at home, It's so hard to avoid it. You will end up sneaking for that candy bar at night. Especially if in your head you know that it would be really easy to just walk to your pantry and get one. Now try to take home fruits like bananas, apples grapes and oranges. So whenever you are craving for sweet you have no choice but to grab one of these healthy fruits of course. Now give your body some time to adjust with those fruits and when it happens, Your body is now used to having those fruits instead of those sweet junk foods.

Keep a well balanced diet and exercise, this will not only keep your body fit but it also help the blood sugar level stable.

  1. I agree with you that sweets are one the vilest things in the world! That's actually the reason why I went overweight. I tried mighty hard to diet and exercise but I was too lazy to continue. I tried to consult Dr. Magallona of http://www.philippineplasticsurgeon.com/ to have minimal plastic surgery but the truth is, I am not qualified yet to have one because he said that my unwanted fats can still be overcome by religious exercise and proper diet. I am happy that he was not just a surgeon bu he really cares about other people (well, he even turned me down, a potential client). I just want to share this experience with everybody because a healthy body is not enough to achieve the body that you've always wanted. You should also have a healthy mind.
