Various studies have shown that eating too much sugar (especially added sugars) and refined foods can suppress our immune system for hours after ingesting. But did you know that breaking sugar addiction is easier than most of us might think? It doesn’t take weeks or months of hard restrictive dieting if you know how to approach it and what to offer your body instead.
Sugar addiction
Sugar addiction is a real thing! And it's a massive problem in western societies. Our bodies produce dopamine, which is a type of neurotransmitter, with the function of sending messages between nerve cells in your nervous system. Dopamine plays a role in how we feel pleasure, and that means also cravings. Dopamine levels in the brain are strongly affected by sugar, which is the reason why sugar is so addictive and even comparable to substances such as heroin and morphine.
But how do you know if you eat too much sugar?
Here are some common symptoms you might feel if you are sugar addicted:
👉 You feel cravings for sugary or other refined junk foods
👉 Your mood goes up and down, and you're easily irritable
👉 Your sleep is light, you have difficulty falling asleep or you wake at night, and you don't feel rested in the morning
👉 Your mind is not sharp and you might feel brain-fog
👉 You want to rest in the middle of the day and feel a lack of energy
