I overcame my sugar addiction and I have more energy without it
Superé mi adicción al azúcar y tengo más energía sin ella
Despite being a doctor, she struggled with sugar addiction to cope with anxiety and depression. After deciding to quit, she experienced a powerful detoxification and now has more energy than ever before.
Despite being a doctor, I had a sugar addiction and used it to reduce anxiety, pain or depression. I felt that rush of energy made me happy, for the briefest moments... When I made the decision to give it up, I panicked, but I noticed the detoxifying effect on my body and my mind.
It can be done, it's not easy, but it can be done, I have more energy without it and I hope to pass this knowledge on to those I love...
A pesar de ser médico, tenia una adicción al azúcar y usaba para reducir la ansiedad, el dolor o la depresión. Sentía que ese golpe de energía me hacia feliz, por brevísimos momentos... Al tomar la decisión de dejarla, tuve pánico, pero noté el efecto desintoxicante en mi cuerpo y en mi mente.
Se puede, no es fácil, pero se puede, tengo mas energía sin ella y espero transmitir este conocimiento a quienes amo...
