7-day meal plan to a sugar-free you

Let’s face it; you use sugar all the time!

You use it to sweeten coffee or tea, buy candies and sweets on a daily basis, and it’s not uncommon for people to add it to fruit salads and oatmeal to make them “more delicious.”

Excessive consumption of sugar is closely tied to cavities, insatiable hunger, weight gain, insulin resistance and diabetes, liver failure, high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases, cognitive decline, and much more.

Toning down sugar consumption and opting for healthier diet choices can make you feel better and improve your health. The best thing is; ditching sugar habits isn’t that difficult when you know how to adjust your diet.

To help you out, we bring you this 7-day meal plan you should follow.

Day 1

Breakfast
Start your day with two poached eggs over six cups of wilted spinach sautéed with olive oil. Season your breakfast with salt and pepper to taste and serve with one piece of sprouted-grain toast spread with butter (just a little bit).
