let’s talk about sugar now there’s many

different types of sugar I’m going to

show you a couple different types this

is called refined sugar as you may have

already known and what sugar does when

it’s refined it’s taken out of the sugar

cane and sugar cane naturally has a ton

of vitamins ton of potassium ton of B

vitamins and then we refine it they take

out the all this good nutrition and

that’s called molasses okay and they

toss that or they sell it and then they

they this is what they use to put in a

whole bunch of things now there’s also

high fructose corn syrup which is very

very cheap sweet sweetener and corn

syrup and we want to stay away from all

that we also want to stay away from this

because when you consume this it

depletes minerals specifically potassium

that’s why when you eat something sweet

you fill up with fluid your N equals get

up all puffy and your fingers get puffy

because you’re going to retain water why

because this depletes potassium we

already have a problem with potassium I

mean you need 4700 milligrams a day you

don’t even get near that and that would

be like 10 bananas so adding this to the

picture is really going to put you in a

situation deplete potassium and B

vitamins and you’re going to have

problems with them I mean nightmares and

low blood sugar problems so when the

blood sugar goes down it doesn’t mean

eat more sugar okay it means that your

blood sugars are low and that means

you’re going to get irritable so try not

to eat and go to a grocery store you’re

just going to be thinking about sweets

you’re going to be dreaming about sweets

and that’s really why people crave

because they have low blood Sugar’s now

when the blood sugar goes high you get

tired and sleepy like after you would

eat you might want to just take a nap or

a Thanksgiving meal okay so now there’s

different types of sugar right here too

this is natural sugar or it’s just

basically sugar with a little bit of

molasses in there okay that’s what this

is like

sugar and then we have something else

called turbinado sugar which is raw cane

sugar this is a little bit better than

the other one because it has a little

more molasses and again I’m not telling

you to eat this by the way I’m just

showing you the different types of sugar

this one here is unrefined sugar this is

like molasses crystals it’s very earthy

I mean it’s the least of all evils I

mean you’re it’s not that bad if you’re

going to eat sugar this would be the

thing you would eat but the thing is

when you make stuff with this you can’t

eat a lot of it

because there’s so much nutrition it’ll

your bio just like okay I had enough

it’s very earthy and earthy taste now we

have also honey honey is we’re coming up

in the things that are a little bit

better for you even even this the only

reason I would recommend this is coming

off your sugar this would be a little

bit better because this is more of a

diabetic sugar it’s called turbinado I’m

sorry side turbinado it’s called Tupelo

honey

okay turbinado would be this stuff over

here

Tupelo is a type of honey that is

absorbed very slowly in the body as has

a certain type of sugar because the

little honey bees take 36,000 trips to

the Beehive to make one pound of honey

and then we rip it off and then we give

them the white sugar but if you’re going

to do honey to Tupelo Honey and do very

small amounts of it especially with your

kids but it’s it goes in very slowly

okay so that would be on the scale of

things it’s better than white sugar but

still I would prefer you did our

favorite stevia or fruit like peaches or

bananas that would be even better

if you really need to ask sweetness I

personally don’t like sweet sweet any

sweeteners simply because my body is so

used to not eating sugar my taste buds

have adapted and that’s what’s going to

happen with you once you come off this

sugar for a week or two your taste buds

when you eat sugar it’ll be too sweet so

we want to change the way you perceive

in case

people that are used to eating sugar you

eat a lot of it to create the same

sensation so we’re trying to get you off

this the sugar but stevia is a really

good thing it’s very sweet

put a drop in in anything that you want

to sweeten and it’ll be very sweet but

some people don’t like this because it’s

kind of earthy so you can use the

organic stevia extract here as a powder

form right here don’t add a lot there’s

it’s very very sweet but this is

acceptable sweetener you can have as

much of it as you want now the other

thing about sweets is was hidden sugars

like in vanilla yogurt there’s a lot of

sugar in there or flavored yogurt ton of

sugar juice orange juice is a ton of

sugar so you have Rifat you have oranges

and then you refined pasteurized orange

juice which by the way is just like

sugar water and then you have you also

have the vegetable which is not very

sweet has all this fiber and then you

can break it down into vegetable juice

which is that better than that stuff but

it’s still sweet you know if you have

like a lot of carrot juice but if you

have celery juice that’s going to be

okay so we’re looking at the sugar

content we want to lower the sugar

content simply because when you increase

sugar you increase insulin and the

presence of insulin you cannot burn fat

all of the fat burning hormones are

nullified when you have just a little

bit of sugar that means a little bit of

alcohol wine before bed I don’t care if

it’s white wine or dark wine or whatever

just mix the alcohol right now because

we want to get you off that if you if

you can’t get off of it right away then

what you want to do is take that

kombucha tea that I recommend and drink

that instead because it will give you

that same relaxing feeling so we have

orange juice and then we have different

juices that people have and sodas and

things like that with added sugar just

avoid all that stuff I would recommend

eating the whole food and you can blend

it blending your vegetables and fruits

are much much better as compared to a

juicer all right even if it’s vegetable

juice so you can take the I mi site I

have all these recipes you can take you

take orange and banana and blend it you

can take kale and and blueberry and

papaya and blend it that would be a lot

better

so what we’re trying to do is we’re

trying to lower insulin because insulin

is one of the hormones that are negative

and the thing that will stop your

fat-burning hands-down so even that

little bit you know even that little bit

of sugar in your coffee every day even

that little glass of wine before bed

that’s enough to blow the whole week so

try to cut the sugar out if you’re

craving sweets all that means it’s a

potassium deficiency to get rid of

potassium deficiencies what you want to

do is you want to increase your

vegetable to about 10 cups of salad a

day that’s what I do

so I have a salad the big salad for

lunch and a big room for dinner it’s not

that hard

I mean salads are fluffy you can take

the salad baby green salad and just

compress it into like a little ball and

if you still have problems with that

just take your salad put it in the

blender put dressing put nuts put apples

and blend it you’d be surprised

it’s actually quite tasty with a little

bit of grape in there it’s delicious

it’s like a little coleslaw so those are

some tips I hope you enjoy
