In this coaching session, we’re going to talk about eating sugar made simple.
I hate to tell you this, but sugar is sugar. Now, if it is honey that is grown organically, raw, that has been prayed over by your grandmother, grandfather, it’s still sugar. Maple syrup that is organic, that’s been loved and grown for generations is still sugar. Agave syrup, rice syrup and coconut sugar is you know, sugar.
Sugar increases the insulin and causes two things:
- It puts the sugar inside of our cells so we have energy
- When the cells say, “I’ve got enough sugar!”—sugar is stored as fat.
The 2 types of sugars that I recommend are the following:
- Low glycemic index fruits
These do not bump up your insulin as high.
- Berries like boysenberry, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries
- Green grapes
- Cherries
- Kiwi fruit
- Coconut (raw)—what I use is raw coconut flakes
- Organic apples
- Avocado—one avocado’s got like 17 grams of carbohydrate
- Stevia
This comes from the sunflower plant and it is 300 times sweeter than sugar and you only need a couple of drops. So if you need something to sweeten your foods and you don’t feel that that’s sweet enough, this is the only other thing I recommend for you and your family.
Studies have also indicated that too much sugar in the form of any carbohydrate can increase our risk of Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s is actually being considered as type 3 diabetes nowadays. So we’ve got to restrict our carbohydrate intake and carbohydrate is a sugar.
If you stumble along the way at understanding this information and implementing it, don’t get discouraged. The ultimate key is to refocus and get back on the track.
You can do it!
Now, let’s go out there and make a positive difference. Let’s love unconditionally and let’s forgive frequently.
