Not only do they make your body feels sluggish, studies show that they could actually affect specific illnesses within us. Just recently, I learned my son has Aspergers Syndrome. And we’ve learned for a long time that my stepson as PDD, which it is a form of Autism. With both my son and stepson having autism, there are many foods I have not included in their diet. Sugar was one of the main products that I decided needed to be eliminated from our household. In addition I chose to minimize caffeine as well. However, these are kids we are talking about and it’s often hard to get them to understand how sugar and caffeine can affect our bodies and increase symptoms in or illnesses because they’ve been addicted to them for so long. So on special occasions they are allowed soda but I try to make sure it does include caffeine. And we do make desserts, but I use natural sources such as honey or simply fruit to sweeten the taste. Since I have eliminated much of the sugar and caffeine in our diets I have noticed a very positive improvement in both of the boys.

]]> Comment on Just Another Name For Sugar by Joy http://seasilverfactorydirect.com/blog/just-another-name-for-sugar/comment-page-1#comment-74 Joy Fri, 11 Nov 2011 14:37:32 +0000 http://seasilverfactorydirect.com/blog/?p=37#comment-74 This article gets right to the point when it comes to all the sugar that manufacturers include in their products. However, it’s gotten worse. And by worse I mean many of the products that are clearly written as being natural on the product’s packaging, isn’t. Every time a pickup a product that says all natural I end up discovering that there’s some form of sugar or other manmade chemical in it. It has now gotten to the point that any time I go grocery shopping I avoid most packaged products because they contain some form of sugar. And by the way, did you know that sugar is more addictive than cocaine? Isn’t that crazy! For my family, I try to shop our local farmers market were I know the products contain nutrients, not manmade chemicals. And while many might say that some farmers use chemicals like pesticides to spray their crops with, I know of a family that doesn’t. I also cook from scratch when possible. And lately, we have avoided eating out because we have no idea what really goes in to the food we are served even in the finest restaurants. All of these steps might seem like a lot, but for my health and my family’s health it’s well worth it.
