Why is sugar so hard to quit?
Here’s the thing: You want sweets for a reason. Your body has a biological predisposition to crave sugar—hey, it’s a great source of calories and energy. But excess sugar tricks the brain into wanting even more. Some common culprits that make quitting the sugar cycle hard:
Your hormones love sweets
Your brain is programmed to use glucose as fuel
Sweets can be an emotional crutch
Childhood patterns are hard to break
In Sugar Detox, you’ll find out how our experts address each of these issues so that you have strategies that’ll work in your life.
