The average Russian consumes annually as much as 30 kilograms of sugar, Rosstat estimated. It is not only sugar in the tea, but also the sugar in bread, ready-made products, etc. That's a lot! For the health of the average person on the day put about 50 grams of simple carbohydrates.
If 50 grams multiplied by 365 days, then get a little more than 18 kg.
From what we can conclude that we should restrain the appetite almost doubled.
Human heavy sugar-mk fast carbs - is a source of pleasure. They stimulate the production of serotonin, and in our life so much stress that serotonin is never superfluous.
The problem is that the refined sugar that is added to food, confectionery products - is not an option. Even if sugar trendy, brown, cane or some other - it is addictive. Over the years, you will be required more and more sweets. And when you consider that sugar is highly caloric, no wonder that a good man is becoming more and more.
Here comes to the aid of Stevia extract is 300 times sweeter than sugar.
And the most important thing! - its calorie content is zero. Stevia is not involved in carbohydrate metabolism and the body has no restrictions for use. It is heat-resistant - that is, when cooking will never be destroyed and will not worsen the taste of the dish.
The main problem with stevia - to find your product. Just brew pot - the idea of so-so, you will get a liquid with a specific taste. Look for the most refined Siropchik.
Another important detail - make sure that in the stevia no other additives - artificial sweeteners, fructose and so forth. Then, this product must be investigated separately.
Among my friends a lot of people who are completely switched on stevia, prepares with her and cheese cakes and pies, in general, wherever necessary sweetness.
The second good sugar substitute - erythritol.
It is suitable for those who Stevia is a little bitter. Erythritol is not as sweet, but can completely replace sugar. And, in contrast to stevia, it has few calories - about 20 to 100 grams.
In stevia and erythritol have two more bonus from them is not tooth decay and do not cause bloating, sugar and other substitutes.
I wish everyone to stay healthy and beautiful as long as possible!
