Podcast 233: How to Detox from Sugar.

21DSD-cover-draftby Sean Croxton

Sugar tastes good.

When I was a little guy, I lived for those days when I would walk down to the local comic book and candy store with a five dollar bill to get 500 pieced of candy — butterscotches, bazooka gums, smarties, you name it — all for a penny each.

No wonder I had a mouthful of fillings!

Fortunately, I outgrew my childhood sugar addiction — though I do love me some dark chocolate covered almonds ever now and then…

But there a lot of people whose days are literally fueled by sugary, processed foods that forever have them riding the blood sugar roller coaster.

For these folks, it might be time for a sugar detox.

On this week’s episode of Underground Wellness Radio, Diane Sanfilippo — author of The 21-Day Sugar Detox — and I discuss how to stamp out sugar cravings, stabilize your energy levels, and break free of the sugar addiction cycle.
