We all know that consuming sugar
isn’t good for you but I don’t think we
realize just HOW bad it is.

Eating a high sugar diet not only makes you fat
but can have serious consequences on your
mental and physical health.

One of the biggest bummers is that sugar
is added to almost EVERYTHING!

Learning how to spot “added sugars”
can help you limit your intake.

Here are a few helpful tips on how
I’ve eliminated sugar from my diet.

1. Look at ingredients.
High fructose corn syrup, brown rice syrup, cane
sugar, evaporated cane juice, honey, maple syrup and
molasses are all forms of sugar.

2. Cut out processed foods
Processed foods are LOADED with sugar
as well as extremely unhealthy fats and ingredients.

3. Stop eating out 
The hard thing about eating out is that we don’t always
know the ingredients that are going into our food.
It’s very likely your sauces, dressings, marinades
are packed full of sugar.

4. Eat the real thing 
Real food is heart healthy, antioxidant and nutritionally
dense, it’s naturally low in sugar, heart-healthy, high in fiber,
high in healthy fats…the list goes on and on 🙂

The best thing about cutting out sugar is
that it gets you LEAN and helps for a better
performance in the gym!

Be better than yesterday!
