Why
one caffeine-boost is much more effective at burning fat than the other...
I
know the satisfaction of eating a carbohydrate complete meal, the sudden relief
of the craving, and feeling content. The feeling of satisfaction does not come
directly from the sugar or glucose, but rather the insulin rush.
Not
only does insulin manage glucose, but it also transports Tryptophan to
the brain. Tryptophan is a building block of the neurotransmitter Serotonin in
the brain, which elevates the mood and produces a calming and satisfying effect.
When the Serotonin level drops again, a gloom feeling takes over, and the need
for more sugar is triggered.
Sugar
is along same line as anti-depressants. The urgent need for it produces feelings
of anxiousness, and once sugar is consumed, all the anxiety is relieved, leaving
you in a content state. Then, as the Serotonin drops, the cycle repeats. This is
how sugar can be so addicting.
Those
who are sugar dependant have the same dependency as those who are addicted to
drugs, alcohol, smoking, and gambling. The sugar need provides immediate
gratification. The person feels they cannot live without this 'necessary'
substance. When in reality, the sugar injection is only playing mind games with
the individual.
Proper
Nutrition
You
can gain more control of this situation if you feel like you are a hostage to
sugars effects.
Proper
nutrition,
balance, combination, water, and supplementation can all aid in control.
Correct
nutrition is of the most importance. With nutrition comes balance and
combination. You can have your carbohydrates, however you need to indulge in
small amounts and combine it with a complete protein to blunt the insulin surge.
Water
is another necessary factor in masking false hunger. Keeping properly hydrated
will excrete sodium and fat, aiding in weight loss, and controlling sugar
cravings.
Supplementation
is the final salvation for sugar cravings. Among these are
Vitamin
B-Complex,
Vitamin
C,
Chromium,
Inositol,
Manganese,
Zinc,
Coral
Calcium, and
Colloidal
Minerals.
Many of the top multivitamin and mineral complexes
have all these vitamins and minerals, excluding Coral Calcium and Colloidal
Minerals. Therefore, it is imperative to include all, as well as proper
nutrition and water to gain more control over being a sugar prisoner.
When
you gain control over sugar, you are in control of your body. You have the power
to change. Turn your life around and invest in your future.
