Sweeter Life with Less Sugar
Sugar Addiction
Sugar addiction is a real thing! And it's a massive problem in western societies. Our bodies produce dopamine, which is a type of neurotransmitter, with the function of sending messages between nerve cells in your nervous system. Dopamine plays a role in how we feel pleasure, and that means also cravings. Dopamine levels in the brain are strongly affected by sugar, which is the reason why sugar is so addictive and even comparable to substances such as heroin and morphine.
Various studies have shown that eating too much sugar (especially added sugars) and refined foods can suppress our immune system for hours after ingesting. But the good news is that breaking sugar addiction is easier than most of us might think?
It doesn’t take weeks or months of hard restrictive dieting if you know how to approach it and what to offer your body instead.

Not sure if it’s for you?
Have you ever felt, at some point, that after eating a large and sweet piece of cake, you feel fresh and energetic, but then you are suddenly so tired and want to lie down and have another piece of cake…? If this is not an unfamiliar feeling to you, you might want to learn more about sugars.
Here are some common symptoms you might feel if you are sugar addicted:
👉 You feel cravings for sugary or other refined junk foods
👉 Your mood goes up and down, and you're easily irritable
👉 Your sleep is light, you have difficulty falling asleep, or you wake at night, and you don't feel rested in the morning
👉 Your mind is not sharp, and you might feel brain fog
👉 You want to rest in the middle of the day and feel a lack of energy
If we consume too much sugar, it immediately affects our well-being, and daily overconsumption can lead our organism to various health problems, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and hormonal imbalance.
And if that's not scary enough, sugar contributes to inflammation in the body and can lead to sleeping problems. On a sugary diet, it is much more common to have problems with the skin, mood, and energy levels as sugar fluctuates its level a lot.
