A sugarolic is just as addicted as an alcoholic. You need the stimulation, your drug is the sugar instead of alcohol or cocaine. When you eat sugar you give your brain extra Serotonin, a hormone in your brain which makes you feel good. When the effect of the sugar is gone you feel worse and you eat more sugar. It`s like a roller coaster, you get high on sugar, down without.

Here are some of the symptoms:

* Sleep deprive
* Mood swings
* Lack of energy
* Pain
* Temperature swings in your body
* Weight gain
* Exhaustion
* Migraine
* Depression
* Trembling

The sugar level in a can of coke or similar is equivalent to 10-12 teaspoons sugar, in just one can! We need approximately 3-4 teaspoons sugar every day.

To make changes and take back your healthy life, you should eat meat, fish, cheese, eggs, beans, vegetables. You should be careful with fruit, since fruit contains sugar. If you are careful with sugar, you can eat a couple of fruits daily. Beware the sugar added in ready made food. Take time to read the ingredient in the food you buy, you will be amazed how much sugar added.

If you`re a sugarolic you need 2-3 weeks to detox your body from sugar. If you stay away from sugar completely in this period, you will experience to get your energy back, your headaches will disappear (may increase the first weeks)and you will lose weight.

Also beware sugar free products, artificial sugar has the same effect as sugar, sometimes even more addictive.

Drink a lot of water while you detox.
