Will You Serve Deadly White Sugar This Holiday Season?
Knowing that sugar is just as addictive as cocaine, no wonder it affects dopamine levels in the brain, and when going cold turkey, could cause withdrawal symptoms. The innocent looking refined sugar is completely made up of calories, lacking nutritional value like minerals, proteins, or fats. If it’s hard for you to shake the sugar habit, it’s normal because of the cocaine-like withdrawal symptoms. Some people feel the increased cravings, some signs of depression, fatigue, sleeping issues and more.
White sugar is the cause of many things like chronic inflammation and weight gain.
