Are you using recreational drugs without knowing it?
Do you suffer from
withdrawal symptoms without knowing why?
Have you ever really considered your sugar consumption and the effect
that it has on you, never mind your endocrine system, and the need for more?
The molecular formula of
sugar is so similar to Cocaine – C12H22011, which is why it’s so addictive.
Sugar meets all the criteria for an addictive substance:
- Stimulates release of dopamine and serotonin
- People eat it compulsively with the intension to
stop
- When consumption ends, withdrawals start
I wonder why some products
are legal and not taxed due to the effects on health. There is practically no
formula difference between Crack Cocaine and Sugar. Neither are taxed and both
stimulate the dopamine and serotonin levels and are highly addictive.
The sugar industry is not as
sweet as you’d like to believe. Food
manufacturers have managed to double the amount of sugar in what we eat over
the past 30 years. It’s not as simple as the amount of sugar you put into your
tea, it’s about looking into the hidden sugars within the myriad of label
definitions of processed foods. Let’s
look at some of the food labels that contain sugar; sugar, dextrose, fructose,
corn syrup *don’t get me started*, malt, maltodextrin, sorbitol, lactose,
xylitol, fruit juice concentrate, sweeteners…. The list is endless – endlessly
wearing.
Look at a typical pre-packed
muffin, it has 8tsp of sugar. Utterly
unnecessary to ingest so much. In the past 50 years we’ve gone from
knowingly consuming 15lbs of sugar per year to now unknowingly 985lbs per
year. But you just have to look around
you and see the physical body max index to see that something if effecting the
change in our shape.
Why? Extended shelf life and
a life-long customer of addiction!
Hey so I’m showing you a
problem and giving you a solution in LPC, this isn’t a sales pitch, it’s an
awareness campaign & if by reading the blog you are informed and mindful of
your food choice then that makes me high with delight. From the outset of setting up Love Pure
Cakes, I’ve always been mindful of the ‘healthy’ aspect of baking cakes and
take out as much sugar as is possible and making sure each bite is pure delight.
My next blog is an unsavoury
attack on cupcakes… In the meantime, know your sugar and enjoy your recreational
drug with willpower.
Sweet love to ya,
Lorna Pellet
