Reducing Sugar Intake and What That Means
Reducing sugar intake will cause you to drastically lose weight almost immediately. Drinking or eating high fructose corn syrup directly affects your liver and is the cause of most people developing a fatty liver which also indirectly affects your waistline immediately and more so over a period of time. The naturally occurring high fructose corn syrup found in fruit is not as harmful as other types simply because of its fiber content. Fiber helps to lower the processing of high fructose corn syrup in the liver thereby not producing the detrimental effects that high fructose has by itself.
If you consume any of the following foods on a regular base you will have a very difficult time losing weight.
- Soft drinks or other sweetened beverages
- Candy
- Bread, cakes, pie, and pastry
