Bye, Bye Sugar...

As I was browsing (and admiring) Gwenylth Paltrow's blog Goop, I came across this magnificent article about sugar and it's woes [pretty much everything]

I recommend you take a peek and become enlightened..

"Today, over a third of the calories we consume come from sugar or white flour, which is highly refined and acts just like sugar in our system. Our bodies cannot cope with such an enormous load. Sugar gives you an initial high, then you crash, then you crave more, so you consume more sugar. It’s this series of highs and lows that provoke unnecessary stress on your adrenals. You get anxious, moody (sugar is a mood-altering drug) and eventually you feel exhausted."

I don’t know about you, but I certainly do not need anything adding to the moodiness of being a woman [thank you, hormones].. So, join me if you will, I am cutting out sugar!!

It’s a new year, time to get serious about what we put in our bodies…
