Giving up sweets “cold turkey” is about as hard as quitting smoking. Refined sugar is actually highly addictive. So, rather than denying yourself any sweets at all, it’s best to soothe that savage sweet tooth with something a little healthier.
Try making cookies, cakes, brownies and other treats using whole grain flours (whole wheat pastry flour, brown rice flour, etc.) and natural sweeteners such as freeze-dried sugar cane juice, raw sugar, real maple syrup and raw honey. These sugars contain B-vitamins and other nutrients that the body needs to process sugar. This makes the treats made with them more satisfying to the body, so you’ll eat less of them.
If you don’t have time to make such treats yourself, buy some treats at the health food store or in the health food section of your grocery store. These healthier versions of goodies are becoming increasingly easy to find.
