Sometimes this sugar stuff can make us question our own sanity.
It’s just a cookie, we all say to ourselves.
“It’s just” “It is just”
Interesting two/three words.
The hard part of all this is we are all stuck in the middle of a worldwide sea change.
Through hundreds of years of human history we have incorporated and ingrained something into our society, our diet and our lives that may end up being very bad for us when used in excess and over long periods of time.
Heck, we give it to our children with no worries at all.
Is there a 110% definitive link to sugar and all the bad stuff it’s accused of today?
We’d have to say no – not yet, the jury is still deliberating but evidence on the guilty side looks almost irrefutable. But, for the brave folks whom sugar was a problem, and have quit – for a long period of time – their stories and successes are 100% proof positive. Among them are stories of weight loss,stopping diabetes medication, clearing of brain fog and 100’s of other positive results.
Do we all know something is up?
We’d have to say yes.
Let’s set aside the science for just a minute and be 100% honest with ourselves – because really, at this point, no one else matters.
For me, I knew that something was happening to my body when I ingested too much sugar.
I could feel it. And the cravings? I’ve never had such intense feelings before or since.
So we have to ask ourselves:
Are we going to wait until modern science says definitively – yes – sugar causes these things in the body? ..Obesity, heart disease, diabetes etc, etc etc.
Heck smoking labels on cigarette packs still say:
CAUTION: CIGARETTE SMOKING MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH.
May be?
The tobacco companies still have enough clout to keep the word IS (hazardous to your health) off the packages?
How long do you think it will be before any warning labels are even on sugar products?
Are you willing to wait?
Is your life worth following the crowd?
At some level, one of the things we find in the folks that we work with is that they are pioneers. They have blazed other trails in their life too. They don’t follow the herd. They are willing to move on something after they have researched and examined the issue.
We are just listening to our bodies, we are reading and doing our due diligence and now we are acting those things.
You, my friend, may be the sanest one in your family, workplace or group of friends.
It seems like a lonely journey.
Everybody seems to love the stuff and it certainly is everywhere.
So what’s the answer?
We believe it’s all about a new community.
A group of people that have come to the same conclusions as you. A group that supports you in WHATEVER you decide, with no judgement, but leans towards the possibility that reducing or eliminating sugar might be, at least, something worth trying.
Well look no further.
Join our group of people just like you. We are in various stages of thinking about and acting on the sugar intake in our lives. We are accepting of wherever you are in your journey but we lean towards wanting to help you quit or reduce using sugar in your diet.
The answer to protecting your sanity, as you walk through this thorny issue in your life, is community. Like minded people moving with you in the same direction and helping each other along the way. It would be our pleasure to have you join us for as long or as little as you care to.
