• The DEVIL in Disguise
Three words and I quote from the book Skinny Bitch "Chemical Shit Storm"! Buy the book and let the authors explain why FAKE sugar is so so so bad for you! Oh and real sugar, well that isn't much better either especially in excess. Here's the thing about sugar, sugar will make you fatter than fat. You're shocked right?! So that means you need to detox yourself from sugar overall, real and fake. Now don't get me wrong some of my favorite sweet treats use sugar BUT I eat them in moderation! In my opinion your sugar options should be 'natural sweeteners' such as unrefined brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses, honey, agave nectar, barley malt and rice syrup. The latest as discussed by Dr. OZ this past week is Agave Nectar from the agave plant. FYI the agave plant is how tequila is actually made. Anyway a tiny little dash goes a long way because it is so powerfully sweet. Another choice to keep in mind is stevia which comes from the stevia plant. I am not particular about the taste as it still reminds me of fake sugar although they claim it is not. So remember SUGAR is the DEVIL and don't forget that!
