You find yourself reaching for a sweet treat late in the afternoon when your energy begins to slump. Your will power isn't enough to stop you!
You know that sugar drugs you, calms you, is your old friend, soothes your anxiety until the cravings start and you need another fix.
When glucose passes into the bloodstream, blood sugar rises quickly. To bring levels back to normal, the pancreas releases insulin, which lowers blood-sugar levels by redirecting glucose out of the bloodstream and into the body’s cells.
When you have more sugar than you need, your pancreas goes into overdrive, releasing excessive amounts of insulin to compensate.
Excess insulin drives sugar into muscle, fat and liver cells, where it’s stored as glycogen for later use. We can't store much glycogen though and when we exceed that capacity, the excess sugar is converted to fat for storage.
Modern science recognizes that the gut is an anchor stone not just for physical health, but also for emotional balance and mental performance. This is because there is a direct link between your gut microbiome and your brain. An unhealthy gut can easily cause feelings of anxiety or depression or mental fog.
When you eat sugar, it causes candida (yeast) overgrowth or “bad” gut bacteria that will literally hack your brain. Artificial sweeteners are possibly even worse because they dramatically change the makeup of the microorganisms in your gut microbiome.
And f that doesn’t worry you then consider this: Clinical studies have found that people with high blood sugar have a much faster cognitive decline rate than people with normal blood sugar levels.
Bad gut microorganisms (aka Aliens) can hack your emotions in the same way that they mess with your ability to think. If you’re feeling inexplicably sad or depressed or anxious theres a good chance that your gut is trying to send you a message to detox and kick the sugar habit.
Then there’s the direct impact of the boom and bust emotional cycle that accompanies high levels of blood sugar. You can literally go from being happily high, to nervous and jittery to anxious and depressed within the space of a few minutes.
Why not let it all go and just feel good?

When I came to see Josse I was going through a pretty severe bout of depression and anxiety. Immediately within a few days the anxiety levels had dropped tremendously and it felt like I could actually function at work
Before starting Dr. Josse’s detox program I was worried that I would often feel hungry, especially during work hours because I am on my feet a lot. But I found that during the detox I actually felt the opposite!
After working with Josse, I started having wonderful people and things come into my life. I am a totally different person with a lot of energy and strength. Also, I now have almost the perfect body as I wanted to have!
