Two Weeks with NO Added Sweeteners: Update

We all know that too much sugar is bad for us. In fact, I haven’t eaten sugar since 2009.

But why would someone who eats only low glycemic sweeteners cut those out, too? As someone who follows a modified anti-candida diet and has no plans to change that any time soon, I’m already eating a really low glycemic, whole foods-based, sugar-free, egg-free, dairy-free, gluten-free diet (also with no alcohol or coffee, and avoiding most mushrooms, vinegars, moldy foods, as well as a few other things. . . whoah).

In today’s video, I talk about my experiment with cutting out all added sweeteners over a two-week span, why I did it, the results I saw, and what I learned from the experience. 

Question:  Have you ever cut out ALL added sweeteners from your diet? How long did you do it? What were the results? 

Highlights:

• The two main reasons I cut out all sweeteners for 2 weeks
• How healthful sweeteners can still cause your diet to be more acidic, even if they are alkaline
• The most important physical effect I noticed
• The impact that no sweeteners had on my sweets cravings
• What I learned from the experience
• How the experience affected my eating habits over the long term
• Key triggers that prompt cravings and eating sweets
• Why you might want to try your own 2 weeks with no sweeteners
• Benefits of doing this 2 week no-sweeteners period
• New program all about sticking with your dietary changes!
