With all the candy at your disposal following Halloween, it’s important to keep from spiraling into a sugar addiction that is hard to break. The candy will be around for awhile, so in the meantime here are 3 tips to keep you and your children afloat.
1. Keep Lots of Fruit Around. Dates and Figs are ‘nature’s cookies”. Roll them in raw almond butter or in cocoa (raw powder) to give them a rich flavor. Apple slices, pineapple, and mango’s are all quite appetizing.
2. Eat Regularly. Keep your blood sugar stable by eating consistently throughout the day which will keep you from feeling starved. This leads to desperate grabs for anything convenient which usually translates to something sweet and fatty.
3. Do Something. When the craving hits, fill those moments with distracting activities. Exercise reduces cravings.
