A sugar-free diet is one that drastically cuts back on, or even completely cuts out, sugar and other sweets. That means staying away from sugary foods and drinks including sucrose, fructose, and high-fructose corn syrup.
This 14-day sugar-free diet meal plan includes tasty, no-added-sugar foods that will sustain your energy and fullness without triggering dangerous fluctuations in blood sugar. This post includes a free 14-day no Sugar diet plan.
What is a No Sugar Diet?
A diet that excludes or restricts all added sugars, foods that are high in natural sugars, and sugar substitutes is known as the no sugar diet. On more stringent diet plans, items like fruit, milk, and plain yogurt are off-limits because of the natural sugars they contain.
How Does a Sugar-Free Diet Help?
A no sugar or low-sugar diet may have several positive effects because eating too much sugar has been associated with:
Obesity
Hypertension Diabetes
Excessive cholesterol
High BP
A rise in systemic inflammation
Your risk for these health issues is greatly reduced when you adopt a no sugar diet.
