Description

The 'Stress, Sugar and Inflammation' workshop will help you learn how to navigate through life's stressors and minimize intake of sugars. *Sugar High Then Sugar Crash* Many of us eat too much sugar, far exceeding the recommended less than 10 percent of our total daily calories from added sugar. “Some estimates from US government surveys say that the average American consumes 152 pounds of sugar and about 133 pounds of flour [which convert to sugar] annually,” says Mark Hyman, MD, in Food: What the Heck Should I Eat?. Altogether, that’s more than three-quarters of a pound of sugar and flour for every American daily, which Hyman calls “a pharmacologic dose our bodies were not designed to handle.” Sugar’s impact on your health and the immune system is a complex interplay of hormonal, metabolic, and immunologic processes that can severely threaten human health. Beyond immediate gratification, very few health effects of sugar are positive. Eating too much sugar can affect the brain and body, including increased risk for cavities, weight gain, cognitive decline, and increased risk for a disease.
