Imagine waking up with boundless stores of energy, generated internally rather than from stimulants or sugar. Today, North Americans rely on sugar more than any other substance on the planet that isn’t necessary to sustain life (like water).
Instead, sugar acts much like a drug in the body and perpetuates a legal addiction for us all. Studies show without a doubt that sugar is indeed as addictive as cocaine. We rely on sugar for energy, for a quick change of state, a mood boost, and the list goes on.
Sugar is in everything, and sadly the marketing big wigs of the food industry make it difficult to decipher the codes on the back of food products. There are roughly more than 30 different names used to disguise sugar on packaged foods, so it’s no surprise that the average American consumes 64 pounds of sugar per year.
Forbes even went as far as to release the headline “Research Shows Cocaine and Heroin Are Less Addictive Than Oreo Cookies”. Sugar has put the world in a sad state, triggering an epidemic of childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes, and chronic disease.
We are all literally fighting a war on sugar, whether we like it or not. Now, there’s an App for that!
The Sugar-Free Detox App by YoungandRaw.com is designed to help you and your loved ones break away from the hold sugar can have on your day to day life. With meal plans rich in whole, plant-based foods, the App is equipped with two 7 day menu plans, from which you can decide on a “low-sugar” option with fruit in the meal plans, or the “no-sugar” option which excludes all fructose entirely.
The Sugar-Free Detox App tallies up your grocery list for you, provides daily reminders to help you keep on track and even offers additional detox support like herbs & teas, a movement plan and detox baths.
If you’re ready to further your knowledge to create a healthier lifestyle for yourself, the App also provides you with a list of books and documentaries to check out. With its beautiful design and user-friendly interface, the Sugar-Free Detox is the start of a very powerful revolution – your health in the palm of your hands, literally. Download the App here.
Right now the Sugar-Free Detox App is only available for iPhone and iPad, though plans to release other versions are already in the works.
