Show Notes

Sugar cravings can seem so uncontrollable, especially when you’re in the habit of eating sugar here and there throughout your day or having a dessert every night after dinner.

In more extreme cases, you may even start to feel like you are a “sugar addict” and need the sugar in order to function.

Listen in this week as I explain why sugar cravings occur, what happens when you eat more natural sugars like what’s found in fruit versus refined sugars in things like candy and desserts, and why sugar cravings seem “bad,” but really aren’t.

You’ll also be happy to learn that you can free yourself from your sugar cravings, even if you feel like you have developed a strong sugar habit.
