Dr. Ashley Lucas walks through what happens when you quit added sugar for 30 days. First week brings dopamine withdrawal and cravings. By week three, inflammation and bloating drop. By day 30, your body burns more fat between meals and energy stabilizes.
If you quit sugar for 30 days this would happen to your body.
During the first seven days you'll feel the cravings because your brain is still adjusting. Sugar lights up your dopamine pathway so a little withdrawal is normal. It gets easier from here. In the next two weeks your blood sugar swings calm down. You stop feeling hungry every hour because insulin isn't spiking and crashing all day. By day 21, inflammation drops, bloating, puffiness and joint aches start to ease because sugar is no longer feeding those pathways. Finally, by day 30 your body starts burning more fat between meals. Energy feels steady, cravings fade and you feel more in control. I know it feels overwhelming but it is so worth it. Blood sugar swings are tied to so many health issues in both men and women so.
It is always better to stay in control instead of letting cravings run the show. Follow for more proven ways to balance blood sugar and to feel your best.
