Manage and Maintain Your Weight:
Cutting back on sugar can lead to weight loss or maintenance. In the last two decades experts believed fat to be the enemy in our diets. We know now that the body needs fat, especially 'good' fats, such as Omega 3 fatty acids which feed the brain, improve circulation and work against inflammation. Excess sugar on the other hand is converted to fat by the body. Refined sugar from carbohydrates that have been stripped of fiber will metabolize even faster. The more sugar you eat, the more fat will be stored on your body.

Control Hunger and Cravings:
Water, protein and healthful fat are needed by the body for it to function properly. As a result, a hunger develops. Your body seeks the nutrients it is lacking and often a binge ensues. In some cases a sugar addiction develops. Eating a bite of sugar creates the desire for more.
Balancing your eating helps to balance your blood sugar and eliminate cravings. This includes eating the right portions at the right times and eating whole, unrefined foods that will be efficiently converted into energy and not stored as fat.

Lower Your Risk of Illness and Disease:
Sugar robs nutrients from the body needed for its metabolism, so nutrient deficiencies such as osteoporosis, anemia’s and immune deficiencies are all influenced by sugar consumption.
The immune system itself is affected by sugar as it inhibits the release of growth hormones when it raises insulin levels.
Sugar can play havoc with the digestive system, weakening it, and not allowing nutrients to be assimilated properly. Sugar ferments and interferes with digestive health, often causing gas and bloating.

Enhance Mental Clarity:
Research indicates that sugar can contribute to memory loss and an inability to concentrate. It has been shown to contribute to nervousness and negative thoughts. Research also suggests that inflammation created by sugar intake is the cause of disturbances in the brain's chemistry.
