Top 1. 0 Big Ideas: How to Detox from Sugar. Here’s the not- so- sweet truth. We are killings ourselves by consuming truckloads of hidden sugar. Sugar is the New Fat. Despite 4. 0 years of Americans being brainwashed into thinking that fat is bad, it turns out it’s sugar, not fat, that makes you sick and overweight. The facts are in, the science is beyond question. I am so excited to share Dr Mark Hyman's upcoming book, The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet with you over the next couple of weeks.

Top 10 Big Ideas In my book, The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet, you The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet: Activate Your Body's Natural Ability to Burn Fat and Lose Weight Fast .Sugar in all its forms is the root cause of our obesity epidemic and most of the chronic disease sucking the life out of our citizens and our economy — and, increasingly, the rest of the world. You name it, it’s caused by sugar: heart disease, cancer, dementia, type 2 diabetes, depression, and even acne, infertility and impotence. The average American consumes about 1. The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet (2014) is an unprocessed, low-carb detox diet. Preparation phase: Come off caffeine, alcohol, sweetened beverages, and. That’s roughly 2. America. And our kids consume about 3. Flour is even worse than sugar. We consume about 1. That’s about one pound of sugar and flour combined every day for every man, woman and child in America. And flour raises blood sugar even more than table sugar. Even whole- wheat flour. Food Addiction: Is It Real? Here’s another shocking fact: Sugar is eight times as addictive as cocaine. Being addicted to sugar and flour is not an emotional eating disorder. It’s a biological disorder, driven by hormones and neurotransmitters that fuel sugar and carb cravings — leading to uncontrolled overeating. This is not a limited phenomenon. It’s the reason nearly 7. Americans and 4. 0 percent of kids are overweight. In one study, Harvard scientists found that a high- sugar milkshake (compared to a low- sugar one) not only spiked blood sugar and insulin and led to sugar cravings, but it caused huge changes in the brain. The sugar lit up the addiction center in the brain like the sky on the Fourth of July. Think cocaine cookies, morphine muffins or smack sodas! Why You Need a Sugar Detox. We need a clear path to detox from sugar, to break the addictive cycle of carb and sugar cravings that robs us of our health. And it only takes 1. We need science, not willpower, to reverse this. That’s why I created The Blood Sugar Solution 1. Day Detox Diet. Early last year, I invited more than 6. But more important, they did it painlessly by enjoying powerful addiction- reversing foods that rewired and reset their brains and bodies. No cravings, no bland or boring diet food, no deprivation. Just abundance and delight. And at the end of the 1. More recently, another group of 3. You can read about their experiences and results . You’ll see for yourself how well it worked. Top 1. 0 Big Ideas. In my book, The Blood Sugar Solution 1. Day Detox Diet, you’ll learn how to make these top 1. Make a decision to detox. In my book, there are three simple quizzes to help you know you need to detox. If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, a sugar detox is your ticket to feeling great quickly and losing weight painlessly. The first is the diabesity quiz. Do you have pre- diabetes or type 2 diabetes? Crave sugar and carbs? Have trouble losing weight on low- fat diets? Have high triglycerides, low HDL (“good”) cholesterol or been told your blood sugar is “a little high”? The second is a food addiction quiz. Do you eat when you’re not hungry? Experience a food coma after eating? Feel bad about your eating habits or avoid certain activities because of your eating? Get withdrawal symptoms if you cut down or stop eating sugar or flour? Need more and more of same bad foods just to feel good? The third is the FLC Quiz (or the Toxicity Quiz). FLC stands for Feel Like Crap. FLC Syndrome has a list of symptoms including bloating, gas, reflux, irritable bowel, joint or muscle pain, brain fog, memory or mood problems, sinus or allergy symptoms and more. Millions of us have FLC Syndrome and don’t know we are only a few days away from health and happiness. Be a turkey (a cold one)There is no way to handle a true physiological addiction except to stop it completely. Addicts can’t have just one line of cocaine or just one drink. But you won’t have to white- knuckle it because if you follow these 1. Big Ideas you will automatically reset your body’s neurotransmitters and hormones. Stop all forms of sugar, all flour products and all artificial sweeteners — which cause increased cravings and slow metabolism, and lead to fat storage. Also get rid of anything with trans or hydrogenated fats and MSG (watch for hidden names). Ideally, for 1. 0 days you avoid any foods that come in box, package or a can or that have a label, and stick to real, whole, fresh food. And the best way to really detox is to give up ALL grains for 1. Don’t drink your calories. Any form of liquid sugar calories is worse than solid food with sugar or flour. Think of it as mainlining sugar directly to your liver. It turns off a fat storage machine in your liver, leading to dreaded belly fat. You don’t feel full, so you eat more all day and you crave more sugar and carbs. It’s also the single biggest source of sugar calories in our diet. That includes sodas, juices other than green vegetable juice, sports drinks, sweetened teas or coffees. One 2. 0- ounce soda has 1. Gatorade contains 1. One can of soda a day increases a kid’s chance of being obese by 6. Power up the day with protein. Protein, protein, protein at every meal — especially breakfast — is the key to balancing blood sugar and insulin and cutting cravings. Start the day with whole farm eggs or a protein shake. I recommend my Whole Food Protein Shake. Use nuts, seeds, eggs, fish, chicken or grass- fed meat for protein at every meal. A serving size is 4- 6 ounces or the size of your palm. Eat unlimited carbs (the right ones)Yes, that’s right. Did you know that vegetables are carbs? And you get to eat as much as you want. I only mean the non- starchy veggies such as greens, the broccoli family (cauliflower, kale, collards, etc.), asparagus, green beans, mushrooms, onions, zucchini, tomatoes, fennel, eggplant, artichokes, peppers, etc. What’s out are potatoes, sweet potatoes, winter squash and beets — just for 1. Also skip grains and beans for 1. It supercharges the results so you lose weight and feel great. Fight sugar with fat. Fat is not a four- letter word. Fat doesn’t make you fat, sugar does. Fat makes you full, balances your blood sugar and is necessary for fueling your cells. Along with protein, have good fats at every meal and snack including nuts and seeds (which also contain protein), extra virgin olive oil, coconut butter, avocados, and omega 3 fats from fish. Be ready for emergencies. You never want to be in a food emergency when your blood sugar is dropping and you find yourself in a food desert such as an airport, the office, or in a maze of convenience stores, fast food joints and vending machines. You need an Emergency Life Pak. I have one with me all the time, filled with protein, good fats, and good snacks so I never have to make a bad choice. Here’s what’s in mine. Packets of Artisana nut butters and coconut butter, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, salmon jerky or turkey jerky, a can of wild salmon or sardines and unsweetened wild blueberries. Swap distress for de- stress. If you are stressed, your hormones go crazy. Cortisol goes up which makes you hungry, causes belly fat storage and leads to type 2 diabetes. Studies show that taking deep breaths activates a special nerve, called the vagus nerve, that shifts your metabolism from fat storage to fat burning and quickly moves you out of the stress state. And all you have to do is take a deep breath. My Take Five Breathing Break is something you can do anywhere, anytime. Simply take five slow deep breaths – in to the count of five, out to the count of five. Do this before every meal. Put out the fire (of inflammation)Studies show that inflammation triggers blood sugar imbalances, insulin resistance, pre- diabetes and type 2 diabetes. The most common source of inflammatory foods other than sugar, flour and trans fats are hidden food sensitivities. The most common culprits are gluten and dairy. We often crave the foods we’re allergic to. Without them we feel lousy and want more. Quit gluten and dairy for ten days. Getting off them isn’t easy, but after just two to three days without them you’ll have renewed energy, relief from cravings, and will see many of your common symptoms disappear. Get your zzzs. Getting less sleep drives sugar and carb cravings by affecting your appetite hormones. In human studies, depriving college students of just two hours of the recommended eight hours of sleep led to a rise in hunger hormones, a decrease in appetite- suppressing hormones and big cravings for sugar and refined carbs. You want more energy if you don’t sleep, so you go toward quickly absorbed sugars. Sleep is the best way to fight against the drive to overeat. You literally can sleep your cravings and your weight away. All of these ideas and a goof- proof, step- by- step plan of how to make them work for you are in my new book.

The Blood Sugar Solution 1. Day Detox Diet.”. Sugar is the new nicotine. Sugar is the new fat — except fat is not addictive in the way that sugar is,” Hyman says. Yet the public isn’t catching on. Hyman believes our crushing addiction to sugar and flour tucked inside processed foods simply keeps us hooked and hungrier for more junk. We’re consuming on average 1. That is a lot.”. These deadly white powders are quickly absorbed into our bodies, which are biologically programmed for food shortages, not today's abundance. That’s why that load of sugar, carbs and calories gets stored, fat- banking, if you will, for a starvation period that never happens. Yet you also feel hungrier and crave more sugar and carbs, which make these symptoms worse. This is a medical detox,” explains Hyman, who used to treat patients addicted to drugs and alcohol. If one of those is a supersized fast- food meal, they’d have to run 4 miles a day for a week just to burn off that burger, fries and Coke. One can of soda a day increases a kid’s chance of obesity by 6. And women who try to do the right thing by drinking diet sodas actually drink twice as much as those who drank regular sugar- sweetened sodas, because artificial sweeteners are more addictive than regular sugar. That's where this detox diet comes in. Toss out processed goods packaged in plastic or in a box, bottle or can — unless it’s whole food with only a few real ingredients, like canned tomatoes in water and salt. Dump those down the drain.
