How many times have you told yourself that you are not going to eat any more sugar and then found yourself digging into the next cupcake in sight? If you experience sugar cravings – like many people do – you might feel like you have no willpower when it comes to sweets. You might even feel pretty guilty after you eat something sweet. Well, you’re not alone.
While it’s common knowledge that increased sugar consumption has a negative impact on your health, including increased risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes, it can still be difficult to stay away from sweet flavors. The problem with sugar arises with overconsumption.
Now that sugar is so readily available at gas stations, work, and social events, it makes it harder to just say “no” every time.
