The key to happy transition when you quit drinking alcohol depends in large measure on balancing your blood sugar levels. The refined sugar in alcohol is an addiction unto itself. Getting off of the sugar in alcohol produces many heightened withdrawal effects including: cravings for more sugar, headaches, and feelings of depression.
Fortunately with the aid of a rebalancing diet, withdrawal symptoms rarely last more than four or five days. However, every time you again consume even a little alcohol, addiction can come back in full swing.
When Looking for Sweet Foods to Relieve Your Sugar Cravings Try These Natural Alternatives:
Dates
Frozen bananas
Semi-moist dry fruit
Cooked fruit or baked goods sweetened with agave of maple syrup
Sweet orange vegetables like yams and carrots
Foods to Avoid When Quitting Drinking
Refined white sugar
Processed white flour
Foods with a high glycemic index (instant rice, baked potato, raisins)
