Having
trouble avoiding high fat or sugary foods? Your brain may be
responding to these foods in a similar way to hard drugs like cocaine!
What
does this mean for those of you trying to change your eating habits?
You may experience anxiety, depression, extreme cravings and
other withdrawal like symptoms when you cut back on high fat/high sugar
foods. In other words it is difficult to make these changes to your diet
and to make a lasting change you need to know that it
takes perseverance.
Decreasing your fat and sugar intake will have positive impact on
not only your waistline but also your overall health. Replacing high
fat and sugar foods with fruits, vegetables and whole grains can lower
cholesterol levels and decrease your risk for heart disease.
