Sugar Blues
Thursday, July 16th, 2009 | Uncategorized | No Comments
Do you ride the daily roller coaster of blood sugar highs and lows? Do you crash around 3 or 4 o’clock every day and crave something sweet to pep you up? If so, listen up. You can maintain a nice steady blood sugar all day and feel much more stable and energized. Here are the 3 steps to get you there:
1) Eat something at least every 4 hours
2) Keep carbohydrates controlled (stay under 60 grams of carbohydrate for any given meal or snack…this includes foods and beverages combined)
3) Include protein (get at least 7 grams of protein in any given meal or snack…this can come from foods and/or beverages)
What’s interesting is that these are also some of the basics to get you started on the road to healthy weight loss as well. As always, give me a call if you need more information or further support!
