It's not your fault you crave sweets on the regular.

Yup, you read that right.
  • You can binge on TV and ice cream after a long day of work.
  • You can consume a pile of chocolate after a messy break-up.
  • You can down a half liter of regular soda while eating a cookie                                  the size of your face for no reason at all. 
  • You can decide you're going to be healthier, only to fail the very next day because you craved something sweet...and it still would NOT be your fault.
​So who takes the blame for your potential weight gain, skin problems, energy crashes, body image issues, and other emotional and physical illnesses that may be caused by consuming excess sugar?
​
The corporations that create all the sweets you crave are 100% to blame.
1. They lure you in with attractive ads and packaging. 
2. They play with your senses by using artificial flavors, sweeteners, and colors.
3. They take advantage of holidays, trends, and even personal events to make you feel a certain way.​​
​
Food corporations get away with this because they know how to tap into our senses, emotions, and memories through attractive and highly palatable (i.e strong tasting) products. â€‹
​
The only way to break their spell is for us to unlearn the rules that these brands have taught us -
like the very act of rewarding or comforting ourselves with highly-flavored ultra-processed foods
that are detrimental to our health.

This does NOT mean that we endorse cutting out all sugar completely.  

Sugar is a carbohydrate. 
Many carbohydrates are beneficial for us. 
Moreover, we're all food enthusiasts here.
We understand that good food makes for good memories.

The key is to change from craving the wrong types of sugars and carbs to craving the right ones that nourish you and keep you full. 
YES, it is possible to crave nutritious foods.

We have to learn to find flavor, pleasure, and satisfaction in foods that give us proper nutrition and energy. We have to change our perspectives by slowly incorporating new habits and creating a new mindset that we can pass onto future generations.
 
  • We should be able to indulge in our favorite treats every once in a while.
  • We should realize when we've eaten enough and not have to force ourselves to stop.
  • We should be able to easily say no to foods that are bad for our long-term health.
  • We should be able to make food decisions that complement our goals and true desires.
