If you’ve been experiencing sugar cravings, fear not. Although not without some initial discomfort, cravings will diminish quickly after you quit sugar. The health benefits far outweigh the hardships here, and the best part is you can still taste the sweetness. As long as you’re not gorging on fruits and managing a balanced diet, you can enjoy delicious fruits every day. In fact, once you quit processed sugars, fruits will start to taste even more delicious to your newly refined palate. Let’s talk about the benefits:

Reduced Risk of Illness

The consumption of refined sugars can lead to serious diseases like diabetes, heart disease, slowed cognitive function, anxiety, vascular disease, obesity and immune system impairment. It can also speed up aging, and who wants that to happen? And don’t forget tooth decay. Kids are especially susceptible to this since they might not be as great at brushing and flossing their teeth at night and really enjoy their sugary treats. (Read more on the link above)

Peumus Boldus, aka Boldo is a plant used in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, and Paraguay for stomach and digestive issues. It is also said to be good for your liver and to break down fats during digestion. Originally from central Chile, the leaves are used to make tea and even sold in pharmacies in those countries. I have a plant at home and it grows very well indoors. If you put it outside in the sun it will grow big and strong very fast. The tea has a strong, woody flavor and it kind of smells like marijuana when you rub the leaves. It won’t get you high though, sorry. ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
