Sugar addiction is one of the most important and widespread addictions on planet earth today, and getting worse every day! It affects many children and teenagers. It also affects millions of adults, who just let it slide because it is so socially acceptable. However, it leads directly to a host of ailments such as tooth decay, obesity, osteoporosis, heart disease, cancer, metabolic syndrome or Syndrome X, and diabetes. Let us examine this common addictive behavior. WHAT IS AN ADDICTION? An addiction is anything that one must have in order to avoid a negative feeling or symptom. One feels better with the addictive substance or behavior, but the end result is a weakening or greater dysfunction of the body or brain.

Addictions can include almost anything, not just foods, drinks or other physical substances.

It could be boredom, fear, loneliness, depression or frustration. For example, today many people feel a strong ÒneedÓ to email or text their friends all day long, even though it is not really necessary. It is just to avoid loneliness or feeling out of sorts, tired, bored or upset in some way. Thus, many people live addictive lifestyles - the majority, by the way - and donÕt even realize it because they donÕt smoke, gamble or drink alcohol. A related psychological aspect of addiction has to do with traumas in the past.

This is almost universal. Most parents do not realize how they are setting their child up for problems in the future with this reward system. What occurs is that each time the adult person eats something sweet, he or she recalls that this means he or she was a good person.

This is sugar addiction. It might also be a need for a sweet dessert after each meal, or sweetened tea or coffee or even carrot juice. It could also be a strong need for a candy bar or a drink of alcohol, particularly wine or [www.tangjia7.com](http://www.tangjia7.com:8901/mirtasaenz9692) beer, at the end of the day. Other examples include people who love chocolate, sweetened coffee or tea at Starbucks, peanut butter, sweetened cereal, a donut or sweet roll, or just need raisins or almond milk periodically during the day. Without the sweet treat, one may feel tired, light-headed, dizzy or confused. There may be shaking or weakness that is relieved in a few minutes by eating something sweet. More extreme symptoms include shaking or tremors, severe headaches, depression, anger, nausea or even vomiting. All this can be part of sugar addiction. I suggest a complete nutritional balancing program to end sugar addiction. You may begin with the ÒFreeÓ Program.
