SUGAR Awareness

Food is a natural reward. Sugary stimulates your brain's reward system causing you to consume more of that food. Studies have found that sugar does trigger the release of dopamine found in the region of the brain that's associated with the reaction to addictive drugs. Sugar causes the release of dopamine and the release of endogenous opioids in the brain from sugar can also result in a surge and subsequent cravings. This is why we find it hard to come back after binging on sugary foods. Regular sugar consumption changes your brain, making it more tolerant to it and requiring more of it to have the same impact. It has been shown to lead to a higher chance of being diabetic and overweight. So, if you consume a lot of added sugar in your diet, cutting back would be great for your overall health.

It may have some unpleasant side effects such as anxiety, depressed mood, insane cravings (like with addictive drugs), difficulty concentrating, insomnia, nausea, fatigue, headaches, lightheadedness/dizziness etc.

Some people find it too difficult to quit sugar so having 6 (24 grams) teaspoons a day for females and 9 (36 grams) will help as it is the daily recommended amount. Cutting back on sugar slowly helps to limit these symptoms while ensuring it stays long-term.

Here are some tips for cutting back on sugar slowly

Limit sodas and fruit juices consumed one cup at a time.

Starting your day with low sugar can help you cut a few grams back.

Be realistic. Are you really hungry or is it just your bad habit kicking in?

For desserts have some yoghurt, macadamia nuts, fruits, low/zero sugar desserts could also help you cut it out slowly

Be patient, your health is a journey not a race. Going cold turkey isn't always the best option. You decide.

I just watched this and it made the whole idea of sugar addiction feel more real. It explains what changes when you finally stop depending on sugar, like more stable energy and less mental fog. The video keeps it simple and doesn’t exaggerate anything, just shows what actually shifts over time.
