The Sugar Addicts' Diet

Sugar seems to be addictive to a certain degree. The human body learns
fast that sugar means energy and that a lot of energy running through
the system translates into a good overall mood. Unfortunately, the
good mood lasts just as long as the amount of sugar in your blood
stays above a certain level. Once the amount of sugar drops below that
particular level, the mood changes and the body starts craving the
next sugar fix that will make everything look good once more. In this
respect, sugar seems to operate just like any other psychoactive
substance or like adrenaline. You can learn to get high on all these
substances.

The Sugar Addicts' Diet focuses on breaking the addiction to sugar in
order to prevent the mood swings that prompt the addict to reach out
for one more sugary treat. These mood swings are hard to resist and
the promise of the next fix is so tempting that many people have no
idea they're hooked on something that is not healthy. Truth be known,
most addicts don't want to face reality and understand the truth about
their addiction and many people hooked on sugar or adrenalin have
absolutely no idea that they're using a substance to prop up their moods.

This diet is largely based on the Glycemic Index approach because its
purpose is to weed out the sugary foods and replace them with foods
belonging to a lower Glycemic Index that release their sugar content
slowly into the bloodstream and do not trigger the rush. The basic
idea is to identify hidden sugar in the foods you eat. Many people
don't know that it's not just sweets or soft drinks that contain
sugar, but also a lot of sauces, dips, yogurts and ready-to-eat foods
have enough sugar in them to cause the mood swings.

It's pretty easy to figure that this diet is more of a lifestyle
choice than a proper diet. Of course you will lose weight by avoiding
the foods rich in sugar, but we cannot be sure if this is the best way
to go for a committed user. If you want to lose a certain number of
pounds in a certain number of weeks, then you're probably better off
choosing another eating plan because nobody knows how fast you can
lose weight under this one. Still, as a long-term maintenance
solution, this eating plan is a good idea, especially for those who
are used to eating a lot of sweets and are afraid that all those lost
pounds will come back.
