HOW CAN WE MAKE FRIENDS WITH SUGAR?

Sugar, real sugar cane, sweetness from fruits as fructose or sugar as sucrose. What we thirst for, the carbohydrate that tickles our fancy, the sweetness that hangs over but not as headache, a sweetness of love, of real good loveable sugar, white sugar or/and brown sugar. What we crave, chunky chocolates, dark or semi, milk chocolates, imported chocolates. Rum filled chocolates. Salivation as sure as Pavlo's dog, the dog who was taught to salivate at the sound of a bell.

How unhealthy all this is you may say!! Yes, when you isolate sugar and eat it without a protein it is very dangerous. What must we do to nullify the side effects of sugar, effects like Diabetes, a high Triglyceride level. To be able to eat sugar and to not make sugar an enemy, but instead to make it your friend we must eat proteins with the sugar, proteins like nuts or dairy or meat.

If we eat apple slices, at the same time we must eat cheese. Cheese or another meat will provide us with the protein that will nullify the bad effects of sugar, but still raise your Triglyceride levels to a healthy level, so not to feel jittery or shaky caused by a lack of sugar in the body.

Ice cream is a healthy food all around, it has sugar but is accompanied  by milk products which are proteins. Take it light on the chocolate syrup and caramel or strawberry syrup so not to get too much sugar.

Beans are another good source of protein.

In the morning we can eat an egg which is a protein and eat it with sugared juices or oatmeal which is also a carbohydrate. If you fear the cholesterol in an egg eat just the whites and not the yolk.

If we eat chocolate bars, and they are accompanied with nuts for protein, then this is healthy. Bars like Pay Day, Snickers, Baby Ruth, or peanut M&Ms, or any other chocolate bar that combines proteins of nuts with sugar. The nuts take down the sugar level but still you get enough sugar for a good taste and a boost of your metabolism.

You can quit chocolate altogether and just eat fruit for its sugar, but with the fruit eat simultaneously a piece of cheese or a glass of milk, or cottage cheese, or other protein.

Yes, we can make sugar our best friend but we must allow sugar to have a companion in a protein we also eat next to it.

Love the taste of sugar? I do too! I actually do not know anyone anywhere who does not crave the taste of sugar. Now we know how to eat it and not to cause harm to our bodies.

Thank God!!
