Halloween is here and that means candy will be everywhere.
If you're following a ketogenic diet or just simply trying to lose weight, one of the first things you need to do is eliminate sugar.
If you feel tempted to reach for a sugary treat, try this instead and your cravings will vanish!
Georges Lockhark, performance nutrition specialist and adviser to some of the top athletes world wide says this regarding sugar cravings:
"It's kind of like a catch-22 because sugar kind of craves sugar.
The more sugar you eat, the more sugar you're going to want. A lot of times if you're not even hungry you'll taste something like a little piece of a candy...and be like 'yeah, I want more'
It's like the never-ending thirst."
(watch from 1:15)If you drink bulletproof coffee or tea, try adding a teaspoon of Ceylon Cinnamon (Ceylon cinnamon is the true form of cinnamon and it is widely considered the best for blood sugar control and losing weight). Otherwise, simply add a teaspoon to a cup of warm water and drink it like a tea.
I've been doing this for awhile by adding about 1/2 teaspoon to my morning tea and not only did it reduce my cravings for sugar but it dropped my fasting blood sugar substantially.
To your health,
Brian
