Seven Day Sugar Free Diet
The 7 Day Sugar Free Diet is an ebook that should help you to train your body (and mind, and taste buds) to stop craving sugar. Its focus is on real, wholesome, natural foods- not processed junk, that will provide your body with the nutrients it needs to stop its cravings. Simply substituting sugar free artificial sweeteners such as Sweet ‘n Low or Splenda is not healthy and will usually lead to more cravings (though Stevia is a naturally sweet herb that has many health benefits in addition to being a sweetener), but what your body really needs is nutrients.
I have not read this ebook and so I can not wholeheartedly endorse it- however, reading the promotional materials that are tied in to this book makes me think that the author is definitely on the right track. As I said, I have not read the 7 Day Sugar Free Diet (and that name is a little misleading because the eating plan is intended for a lifetime of healthy eating, though there is a 7 day plan included which the author claims will help you to lose several pounds quickly), but I have begun incorporating many whole foods and cutting out most processed foods. I’ve noticed myself that when I consume healthy fats from sources like whole milk, grass fed beef, and coconut oil, that sweets are not that important to me. I don’t think that I will ever lose my enjoyment of chocolate, ice cream, or coconut creme pie, but I no longer crave them and often find myself weighing the taste of the treat against my desire for it. But when I don’t have access to my healthy whole foods? One processed food breeds another.
While I personally recommend drinking whole milk (and while I won’t get into it here, that’s because I recommend raw, unhomogenized milk if you can find it from a safe, clean source), the author of this book recommends that you stay away from it. Given that the majority of Americans only have access to pasteurized or ultra-pasteurized homogenized milk, I agree with her. Pasteurization kills off the bad bacteria, but it also kills off the good bacteria (you know, the reason that yogurt is actually good for you? It’s in raw milk too), destroys many enzymes and vitamins, and the vitamins that producers replace the dead vitamins with are artificial and difficult to absorb. On top of this, skim, 1% and 2% milk have powdered milk added back into it to give the light milks more body- the powdered milk contains oxidized cholesterol which is bad for you. So in this instance, I do recommend following the no-milk advice by the author of the 7 Day Sugar Free Diet unless you have access to low heat pasteurized, non-homogenized milk.
