When it comes to blood sugar, BALANCE is the key. ⚖️ After we eat, glucose in the blood rises. Insulin is released to bring blood glucose levels back down. But, if sugar rises too rapidly, the body can release too much insulin. This causes blood sugar to swing to low again, making us feel tired, cranky and hungry again. That’s a rollercoaster 🎢 you definitely want to get off of!

Here are a few reasons that may inspire you to consider avoiding refined sugar when at all possible:

Sugar weakens the immune system.
Sugar increases inflammation.
Sugar can raise blood pressure.
Sugar contributes to weight gain and obesity.
Sugar can lead to diabetes.
Sugar can cause heart disease.
Sugar can cause hormonal imbalance.
Sugar can raise homocysteine levels in the bloodstream.
Sugar can cause fatigue, mood swings, and depression.
Sugar ages the skin and promotes premature aging.
Sugar can increase your risk of cancer.

It is also important to remember that carbohydrates are foods that are converted by your body to glucose, which is a sugar. Therefore, a high carbohydrate diet leads to chronically elevated insulin levels in your blood, which then causes your body to store sugar as fat. Elevated insulin levels also cause your liver to produce more cholesterol, causing elevated cholesterol levels, and can lead to obesity, elevated triglycerides, high blood pressure, reactive hypoglycemia and adult onset diabetes.

One example of how sugar causes hormonal imbalance is through polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Sugar can exacerbate the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and it can also raise estrogen levels. Proper nutrition is crucial for hormonal balance.

When your diet is full of empty calories, an abundance of quickly absorbed sugars and carbohydrates (bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, etc.), the body slowly becomes resistant to the effects of insulin and needs more to do the same job of keeping your blood sugar even. Insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome associated with it is often accompanied by increasing central obesity, fatigue after meals, sugar cravings, high triglycerides, low HDL, high blood pressure, problems with blood clotting, as well as increased inflammation. New research shows insulin resistance is one of the major factors that starts the brain-damage cascade, which robs the memory of over half the people in their 80s, leading to a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.

Let's talk sugar. Sugar is so gratifying that first bite of Heaven least we can calm us down and give us energy at the same time it's like magic with the power to flip our mood a hundred eighty degrees that's the upside and downside is that the more you eat sweets the more you want them. Excess sugar causes a hormonal imbalance that leads to a carbohydrate cravings and weight gain literally turning your body into a fat making fat storing machine.

Did you know no matter where the carbohydrates come from , 4 grams of carbohydrates equals one teaspoon of sugar in the body. Let me say that again four grams of carbohydrates equal one teaspoon of sugar. So a small Blizzard has 530 calories and 83 grams of carbohydrates which equals 21 teaspoons of sugar. A 9-ounce bag of potato chips equals 32 teaspoons of sugar. And a soda, and that's another 16 teaspoons of sugar.

When It Comes to Healthful Foods, Use Your Head

The Bible says, “Be very careful, then, how you live — not as unwise but as wise” (Ephesians 5:15 NIV).

One of the things you’re learning in your efforts to become Daniel Strong is that real change requires you to face the truth.

Behind every self-defeating behavior is a lie we believe, such as, “I can trust any food that is labeled ‘healthy,’ ‘all natural,’ ‘diet,’ or ‘fat free.’”

Changing eating habits begins with developing discernment. If a food is labeled “healthy” but has 20 ingredients, 19 of which you can’t pronounce, that label is lying. Educate yourself about what is truly healthful food, like fresh vegetables, lean meat, nuts, and fruit.

While it may seem confusing at first, it is really quite simple to eat healthy. Once you learn to recognize lying labels, you’ll feel empowered to make the best choices for your body.

God wants you to “use your head — and heart! — to discern what is right, to test what is authentically right” (John 17:24 MSG).
