Kick the Sugar Habit- Part 1 

As a former severe sugar addict, I know how gripping sugar addiction can be. 

I couldn’t fathom the concept of not craving sugar. Once I got to the other side though, I knew it was my mission to help other people do the same. 

I am a wellness speaker and one of my favorite talks to give is: Kick The Sugar Habit 

In this episode, I share with you part one of my talk. 

I dive into how sugar affects our body, why it makes us gain weight, causes Type 2 Diabetes, fuels chronic disease, sucks our energy, and why calorie counting does not work long term.

Obesity is not a lack of will power. It is hormonal disfunction. 

Type 2 Diabetes is not a life sentence. In most cases, it is preventable and reversible.
