How to Cut Out Sugar in Your Diet

Video Transcript

"Hello, I'm Rachel Richardson. I'm a Licensed Nutritionist and a Registered Dietician with nutrolution.com. In this clip I'm going to show you how to cut sugar out from your diet and it's actually very important that you at least reduce, if not cut out the sugar from your diet. There's lots of wonderful ways to do it. But the reason that it's important is because sugar contributes to all kinds of different health problems, diseases down the road. It comes from an accumulation of too much sugar over too many years; doesn't come from one night of a delicious birthday cake or Thanksgiving meal. It comes from whole year through. But the problems that associate or come from eating too much sugar are going to be things like diabetes for sure, heart disease, even cancer through a certain degree 'cause of the free radical production from the, from the sugar; other hormonal issues, irregularities, breast cancers, things like that as well as fibromyalgia, pain inflammation in the body and many many other things. I happen to have a product that I find has been one of the best things for helping tastes you know, have your food taste good; still taste delicious and sweet but not contributing to any of those health problems. And what I use is this product here called Stevia. This is a special Stevia product, this one is free of all artificial ingredients; maltodextrine or any other things; so just pure Stevia. And Stevia is a leaf that grows throughout the world, I believe and it's just a green leaf and it gets, it has a sweet flavor; but it doesn't contribute to any of those negative health problems that sugar has. So I recommend that you add this to teas, baked goods, any place that you would normally add sugar, you can add Stevia to and enjoy the taste without the health problems.
