One of the hardest parts to overcome in a “clean eating” nutrition plan can be the issues that arise if someone has what is commonly known as a “sweet tooth”. If you have one… you know it. The chocolate calls you from across the room. You probably take carmel, whipped cream, AND syrup in your morning latte. I’m right there with you in this category. I LOVE SWEETS! I’ve come to the conclusion that cutting them out completely only drives me to binge when I can finally get my hands on them. There are ways to cope with your sweet tooth in your clean eating plan.
Sugar: This is all natural. Some nutritionists (and your LIVE personal trainer) are of the opinion that if you are going to have sweetener of any kind, have the real thing! They feel that while it impacts your blood sugar the most, this is the safest choice as you can get it in the natural form. Many feel that knowing you are using the real thing will help you curb the quantity you chose to use.
