Who says you can’t have a healthy diet that includes treats?

The secret is to use real foods, wholesome ingredients, and watch your sugar. Sugar comes in all forms, like glucose (simple sugar), fructose (fruit sugar), and lactose (milk sugar), to name a few. All sugars will cause problems when taken in excess. These may include obesity, hypoglycemia, mood swings and even immune deficiency.  That’s because sugar suppresses our immune system. Remember this when you feel a cold or flu coming on.
