Are you ready for the oncoming sugar invasion?
Yes. The holidays are upon us. We are about to be surrounded by sugar (and it’s evil cousins) from October to the New Year’s. Every gathering and every potluck. The candies, the pies, the cakes, the cookies, etc. The list is endless!
Why is this a problem?
Not only can this be a problem for our teeth, but it can cause problems all through your body and especial for your immune system. Ever noticed how easy it is to get sick at Christmas time? One of the reasons is the sugar deep sixes your immune system. (The other is that the change of season also weaken your immune system. Throw in a little travel and family stress and you have a perfect whammy!)
Ready to not get sick this year?
Start with eating a lot less sugar. The less you can eat the better! Make a few more health alternatives so you don’t feel completely deprived. Adapt some of those family recipes so you can eat them without guilt. We have a family pumpkin pie recipe that we adapted a very long time ago using honey instead of sugar. It still tastes good and we eat it once a year in moderation! Get creative you never know what you will discover.
Does sugar cause more problems then teeth and immune system suppression?
Sugar can cause at least 59 problems (and I have heard of an even longer list than that). Need some more inspiration? Check out the 59 problems and more on why sugar is a problem on the below Sugar - Health Minute.
