Sugar...it's many shapes and forms and its disastrous effects on your health
Sugar. We all know what sugar is, right?
Well, maybe not. I have found in my private practice that many health conscious individuals who believed they were eating a sugar free diet, were actually addicted to sugar in its many various forms.
Sugar can be found in:
1. Candy Bars, cookies, candies, pastries (we should all know this right?)
2. Fruit Juice Sweetened cookies, bars, candies, pastries, etc.
3. Fruit, especially apples. pears, pineapple, bananas, dates, and all dried fruit… Continue

Sarah said… - Welcome to WEGO Health, Alex! I am currently in treatment for ankylosing spondilytis and have found the best relief from Chinese acupuncture. I am continually impressed with the way that itty bitty needles can change the way my body reacts to pain. I share my love of acupuncture with everyone I talk to, and have taken FAR fewer pain killers in the past three months of treatment. So thankful for acupuncturists!
Anyway - looks like you've jumped right into your blogging with WEGO health, and I'm excited to see that you've already taken our What Type of Health Activist Are You Quiz. I, too, am a Broadcaster and love getting the word out about new women's health and chronic pain health information.
If you ever have any questions about what goes on at WEGO Health, feel free to drop me a line!
Be Well,
Sarah
