Cutting Sugar Cravings

Cutting Sugar Cravings?

I’m a recovering sugar addict. I have a lot of patients who are recovering sugar addicts. I used to run long miles, marathons, even, to control my weight so I could have extra brownies the night before.

I’m Dr. Keesha Ewers and I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of people overcome their sugar addiction.

Why is sugar bad for you? It causes you to crave more sugar. It causes inflammation in the body. It’s very addictive. It effects the dopamine, the brain chemical that is involved with addiction.

By Keesha Ewers

Dopamine is where libido starts. It’s not only responsible for our level of sex drive, but also our general ability to set and meet our goals. It’s the neurotransmitter we need to feel desire, to feel content, and when it’s balanced we are less likely to fall into addictive patterns of behavior. Dopamine is part of the “quartet of neurotransmitter” needed for a life full of passion and zest. The other three are oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins. I have blogs on all four of these feel-good hormones.

This is where our focus, concentration, and part of our energy comes from. It’s also part of our pleasure-reward system and helps us feel enjoyment, bliss, and even euphoria when we accomplish something we have set our minds to. [Read more…] about How Do I Get My Sizzle for Life Back?
