Arm Toning And Sugar Addictions

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Unlike the tooth fairy, sugar addiction is real. And if you want the fastest arm toning possible, you need to overcome it. Now I'll be honest, overcoming any addiction is not easy, but there is hope.

What data points to the existence of sugar addictions? First, rodents given massive amounts of sugar demonstrate the same brain changes that someone would present when addicted to opiates. Second, naxolone, a drug used to combat overdoses, has the ability to temporarily blunt a sugar addiction. And finally, sugar is routinely used in hospitals as an effective pain killer for infants during surgery and other procedures.

Now you need to be brutally honest, are you suffering from a sugar addiction? Ask yourself the following questions: do my moods fluctuate with sugar intake? Am I coming up with very detailed reasons as to why I am not addicted as I read this? If so, you are probably addicted.

And it's critical that you beat this thing if you want to maximize your arm toning. You see, sugar blocks the release of arm fat burning hormones into your body. So today I am going to discuss 4 tools that can help you overcome sugar addiction:

1. Substitutes. Remember that strange aftertaste you used to get after drinking your favorite diet soda? Well, the good news is that sugar substitutes have changed a lot. And although a substitute won't give you an energy high, it will taste just like sugar. My favorite one is stevia, an all natural herb from south America.

2. Loose leaf teas. The king of all loose leaf teas is yerba mate. This is the most powerful appetite suppressant I have ever found. It will kill your sugar cravings on the spot and it will accelerate your arm toning because it's also a thermogenic. Don't go overboard with this one, it takes about an hour to kick in and can have effect for up to 8 hours.

3. Using weights. Weight lifting is the best way to skyrocket your appetite and readjust your palate to liking healthy foods just as much as sugary foods. That salad with grilled chicken breasts and an olive oil vinaigrette will taste better than ever after an intense workout.

4. Cognitive therapy. Hands down the best method I've found for modifying emotional behaviors, cognitive therapy is a form of psychological treatment that has been proven time and again by peer reviewed research. The best do-it-yourself resource is "Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy" by David Burns M.D. Unlike most self-help books and motivational speakers, this book will show you how to change your emotions for the long haul.

Sugar is everywhere and unfortunately, we are biologically programmed to seek it out from the day we are born. However, if you want to accelerate your arm toning, you need to reduce your intake as much as possible. And if you are addicted, this won't be easy. But it's possible, and easier than ever before with all the new tools at your disposal.

And remember that implementing this information is just as important as being aware of it. After all, without action new information is rendered useless. - 17273
