Ah sugar. We tend to forget that sweetness is actually a by-product of food, real food that is. This is nature’s way of providing nutritious foods for energy, and there’s some pleasure in it, too.
All plants and animals need sugar – real sugar that is.
Natural sugar is a source of fuel – our bodies need sugar to boost our engines – unprocessed and natural sugar that is.
Nature provides just the right amount of sugar in foods, arranged around healthy enzymes, fiber, and essential nutrients pre-packaged by Mother Nature. This secures the healthy survival of all plants and animals.
Refined sugar, man-made sugars, revved-up sweetness, and artificial sweetness don’t do that. They are traps to addict people to want more and more sweeter tastes, minus the nutrition.
This creates irresponsible, gluttonous, unhealthy food addictions that slow you down and make you gain weight.
The Trap
Artificial sweeteners are marketed as “eat all you want of super-sized sweetness with no penalty”, but the research proves that this is not true.
People with eating disorders, children who are first learning about healthy food habits, and consumers with diabetes and degenerative illnesses are mislead by crafty advertising campaigns. Artificial sweeteners have no nutritional value, but they do have massive profitability.
Artificial sweeteners are never found in nature; natural unprocessed sugars are what’s found in healthy, all-natural foods loaded in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fiber, and protein.
No plant or animal uses diet food chemicals as a source of nutrition, and there are plenty of ways people with diabetes can live long and healthy lives without depending on the artificial sweeteners. Many people are still unaware of the health dangers because we are not being told the truth about refined sugar or artificial sweeteners.
Return To The Way Things Used To Be
Who do you believe? As an educated consumer, you DO have a choice.
You can protect yourself from avoidable illnesses by simply being aware of the stuff inside those little colored sweetener packets.
Return to eating real foods with natural sweetness. Eat like your grandparents ate. Don’t spend your money on the manufactured, chemical foods when you can sweeten with fruit, honey, molasses, herbs, and pure sugar cane.
Whenever you can, buy all-natural, real, organic foods. You’ll feel the difference. You’ll lose weight, sleep better, be more emotionally stable, suffer less stress, and return to your healthy, happy self.
Sound good? Believe me. Just try it!
Do it for you, and for the children.
