Nine Steps to Control that Insatiable Sweet Tooth

Sugar is a craveable ingredient. Eating sugar releases opioids and dopamine in our bodies. This is the link between added sugar and addictive behavior. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that is a key part of the "reward circuit" associated with addictive behavior.

It seems like everyone has that evil sweet tooth, and we must control our sugar cravings before they get the best of us. By getting these sugar cravings under control, then we have a better chance to maintain a healthy weight and live a healthier lifestyle.

Listen to this podcast and watch the video to learn the 9 Tips to Control Sugar Cravings.

Here's nine steps to control your sweet tooth:

The first step is awareness of how much sugar you are consuming daily. If you think you are indulging in the white stuff, then try cutting back by 50%. Count how much sugar grams you are taking in daily and remember it should be around 15 to 22 grams of sugar daily. Naturally occurring sugar from whole fruit can be utilized as an energy source as well to appease the sweet tooth instead of grabbing the simple carbohydrates.

Reading labels to monitor your daily sugar intake will be crucial to getting it under control. Remember that any ingredient ending in "-ose" is probably derived from sugar.

Quench the sugar craving with plain water since a dehydrated body will crave more sweets. Instead of waiting to become dehydrated, you can set an hourly timer to remind yourself to drink a large glass of water.

Eat balanced meals with whole foods as opposed to processed foods that may contain hidden sugar ingredients. The key to balancing blood sugar is to eat foods that prevent too much insulin from being released, such as protein and healthy fats. Eating a clean food regime will start the detox and cleansing process and help prevent sugar cravings.

Before reaching for a sugary treat, try adding greens to your meals and even bake them for healthy, crunchy and yummy snacks. If you must satisfy that sugar craving, then opt for a healthier alternative with natural sugars from fruits or a small piece of dark chocolate.

Magnesium regulates glucose and insulin levels, as well as the neurotransmitter dopamine. A deficiency will cause intense sugar cravings, especially for chocolate. You may have a candida overgrowth that makes you crave more sugar. Taking an organic acid test, where you can check your markers and discover where the imbalances are to correct.

Staying mindful of your sugar cravings and going deeper looking into why you think you need or want that sugar can uncover deep-rooted food issues and feelings that may be causing a vicious cycle in your body and mind.

Learning how sugar negatively affects our health and contributes to weight gain, obesity, impaired memory, increased risk of heart disease, and diabetes may help you reduce your sugar intake.

Always remember that your health is worth the planning, mindfulness, time, and effort to live a healthier lifestyle…all because YOU are worth it!

Mold is estimated to cover twenty-five percent of earth's biomass, with approximately 100,000 fungal species identified. Indoor mold exposure is a health issue. It can negatively affect your overall wellness. Mold is part of the environment that can travel, spread, and grow by releasing mold spores. Mold can impact your health by creating an allergy, toxicity, or infection. Allergies are most common as 70 allergens have been found in spores of mold fungi, causing allergy symptoms and respiratory issues. Mold toxicity can occur because of the production of toxic chemicals from a mold called mycotoxins. This specific type of mold can produce adverse health effects described as chronic effects from the long-term exposure. If you suspect this, then it's best to get tested for mycotoxins with a functional medicine urine lab test. Mold infections can occur from fungi such as Candida, Histoplasmosis, Cryptococcus, Blastomyces, and Coccidiosis, and these infections can cause gastrointestinal issues, skin infections, and more.

According to the American College of Gastroenterology, acid reflux/heartburn affects an estimated 60 million Americans at least once a month and 15 million daily. Acid reflux is a common condition that presents itself with a burning pain, known as heartburn, in the lower chest area.

Heartburn, acid reflux, and GERD actually have very different meanings. Acid reflux is a common medical condition that can range in severity from mild to serious. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic, more severe form of acid reflux. Heartburn is a symptom of acid reflux and GERD.

Most people experience chest discomfort or heartburn after eating or when they lie down or bend over. It results from acid reflux — stomach acid that backs up into the esophagus, which is the tube that carries food from your mouth to your stomach.

How do you know if you have heartburn or acid reflux?

Heartburn feels like a burning pain in your chest that may be very bothersome or painful. You also may have a bitter or sour taste in your throat or mouth. Heartburn actually is a symptom of acid reflux, or GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). GERD is diagnosed when acid reflux occurs more than twice a week.

Common causes of acid reflux (and therefore heartburn) include:

Drinking alcohol

Smoking

Obesity

Poor posture (slouching)

Certain medications (calcium channel blockers, nitrates, antihistamines, certain asthma medicines

nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)

antidepressants)

Certain foods (fatty and fried foods, chocolate, garlic, and onions, Raw onions might also irritate the lining of the esophagus, causing worsened heartburn. caffeinated drinks, acidic foods such as citrus fruits and tomatoes, spicy foods, mint)

Eating large meals

Eating too quickly

Eating before bedtime

Hiatal hernia stomach

Pregnancy

Diabetes

Increase in stomach acid (from stress, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, stomach tumors)

Weight gain

Here are some helpful tips to alleviate or prevent acid.

• Avoid eating large meals and avoid eating a few hours before your bedtime.
• Keep a healthy weight since extra weight can cause pressure inside the abdomen.
• Eat lean protein and less simple carbohydrates because poor carbohydrate digestion can cause acid reflux.
• Check if you have bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine as it can cause acid reflux.
• Avoid alcohol as drinking alcohol can worsen acid reflux symptoms.
• Avoid coffee as it's linked to worsening acid reflux and heartburn.
• Avoid carbonated beverages or citrus juice as they are linked to worsening the condition.
• Avoid trigger foods that can aggravate symptoms, such as fatty or greasy foods, chocolate, caffeine, mint, spicy foods, citrus, and tomato-based foods. Avoid chocolate and mint as they can worsen the symptoms.
• Avoid vaping, smoke or are regularly exposed to secondhand smoke.

Most of the time, diet and lifestyle changes can help relieve or cure acid reflux symptoms (GERD) and heartburn. Reflect on your lifestyle factors concerning drinking clean water, getting enough sleep, exercising, utilizing stress reduction strategies, meditate, and keep a journal to reach your optimal health.

Listen to the podcast and learn DIY strategies for combatting acid reflux.

What to do? Get tested to determine your GI functioning, avoid certain foods, take natural supplements to boost GI health, natural detox, liver support and glutathione levels. Stay hydrated and keep a food journal to determine patterns between your overall wellness and your food and beverage intake.

Do you feel off after eating avocados, chocolate, nuts, spinach, legumes? Bloated with an upset stomach, fatigued, or a killer headache but can't quite pinpoint what the culprit is? It may be your histamine release after eating certain foods. If you have histamine intolerance, then you will feel off when your body has trouble flushing histamine out. It's super hard to diagnose since it can disguise itself as a food intolerance or seasonal allergy. I always recommend keeping a food journal to determine if there's a pattern between what you eat and how you feel.

Histamine ingested via food is stored in the tissues of the body. And when released, it keeps your organs functioning and body working. Responsible for smoothing muscle tissue of the lungs, uterus, and dilating blood vessels, stimulating gastric acid in the stomach, and accelerating your heart rate. The problem starts when someone isn't able to metabolize the histamine compound.

Feeling bloated, headache, exhausted, anxious, and experiencing GI issues, then you may want to look to reduce or avoid the following foods: aged cheeses, avocados, chickpeas, lentils, strawberries, citrus fruits, chocolate, curry, cinnamon, cashews, walnuts, tomatoes, bananas, eggplant, spinach, yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, processed meats, canned and pickled foods, smoked meats, vinegar, and alcoholic drinks, especially wine, champagne, and beer.

Listen to the podcast or watch the video to learn what natural protocol you can use to assist with histamine related issues.
