Sugar & Skin
/
The best part of the #FedUpChallenge has been the effect that not eating sugar has had on my skin. As a late(r) in life moderate acne sufferer I have tried every serum, scrub and tonic on the market. I now see the error of my ways.
“The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison.”
― Ann Wigmore
Sugar and simple carbohydrates damage all organ systems including the skin.
An overdose of sugar and other high glycemic foods create a reaction called glycation that leads to wrinkles, deep lines and acne.
As I write this, we are about to have a family desert. There are two options: fresh fruit and chocolate cake; I bet you can guess which one I am choosing.
I am lucky enough to work with Dr. Grasser as a marketing and web consultant; it is always inspiring to work with doctors who are committed to true wellness and integration of the body-mind.
I am experiencing the results of conscious, clean eating and will continue to be sugar-free long after the #FedUpChallenge.
Happy 8th day of sugar-free bliss.
Best to you,
Audrey @ BRAVE
