5 Ways to Kick Your Sugar Addiction
Ready to beat your sugar cravings? Here’s how you can do it!
Remove Temptations: Purge your home of sugary snacks, drinks, and sweets. Out of sight is out of mind when it comes to curbing cravings.
Read Labels: Sugar hides in many processed foods under different names like high fructose corn syrup or dextrose.
Choose Whole Foods: Embrace a diet focused on fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. These provide nutrients that minimize blood sugar spikes and crashes.
Drink Water: Thirst can masquerade as hunger, so stay hydrated. Infuse water with fruits and herbs for extra flavor without sugar.
Get Active: Exercise helps stabilize blood sugar levels and boosts energy. Aim for 30-60 minutes per day of physical activity you enjoy.
Beating a sugar addiction takes commitment, but feeling better and having more energy makes it worthwhile. Take it one day at a time and celebrate your progress.
Why Gardening Boosts Mood
Looking for a natural way to lift your spirits? Consider taking up gardening. This hobby offers a variety of mental health benefits that can improve your overall wellbeing. Spending time outdoors and being active through gardening tasks like planting, weeding, and raking leads to increased vitamin D exposure and exercise—both linked to reduced stress, anxiety, and depression.
The act of nurturing plants into bloom can provide a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. Gardening also allows you to get grounded by literally putting your hands in the soil, which can induce feelings of tranquility. Studies have even shown getting dirt under your nails exposes you to beneficial bacteria that may positively influence your mood.
Whether you have a garden or just patio planters, developing a green thumb can cultivate an improved mental state-similar to chiropractic care!
