Breaking a Sugar Addiction

Body Basics

In addition to the immediate fatigue and emotional issues, sugar also causes many long-term health problems. For example, our consumption of high-fructose corn syrup has risen 250 percent in the past 15 years, and our rate of diabetes has increased approximately 45 percent during the same time period.

Food processors add 150 pounds of refined sugar per person, on average, to our diets each year. Yes, this amount is indeed incredibly high. Another 18 per cent of our calories come from refined white flour, which acts a lot like sugar in our bodies.

Therefore, it is not surprising that we have become a nation of sugar addicts. Like many other addictive substances, sugar may leave you feeling a bit better for a few hours, but afterwards it begins to wreaks havoc on your body.

Kick the habit for good with our Breaking a Sugar Addiction program!

Program Description

Four Main Types of Sugar Addicts

However, there are four main types of sugar addicts that are easily identified. The different kinds of sugar addiction have different underlying causes.

And, by treating the underlying causes that are active in your particular type of addiction, you will find that not only do your sugar cravings go away, but you also experience a dramatic increase in your energy level, a normalization of your metabolism, and an overall improvement in your health.

Here are the four key types of sugar addiction:

Type1: A Type 1 addict uses sugar and caffeine to keep himself/herself awake, and tends to be addicted to energy drinks. They are stressed out, often Type A personalities who substitute the quick fix of coffee or sugar to make up for not getting enough sleep or eating a healthy diet.

Type 2: These sugar addicts are suffering from adrenal failure and use sugar to keep them going when they are exhausted or stressed out. These are the hypoglycemics. In these people, their blood sugar drops to a low level and consequently makes them irritable, shaky, and tearful.

Type 3: Type 3 addicts have sugar cravings caused by an overgrowth of yeast. These people spend a lot of time eating and wanting to eat foods with a lot of refined sugar and white flour because it makes them feel better...briefly. They are actually feeding the growth of yeast.

Type 4: These addicts have hormonal imbalances and crave sugar to stave off irritability and depression. This applies to men as well as women, though it is most often characterized by women with PMS, as well as with those who are experiencing peri-menopausal or menopausal problems.
