Are you stressed? Then you are probably not losing weight
Researchers from the Netherlands found that anxiety can cause you to overeat when you’re not hungry.
Now this isn’t breaking news or anything, but it reinforces the fact that stress can cause weight gain.
In this study, people who felt stressed after taking a difficult test consumed more sweeets than those who felt relaxed after the test.
The reason for this they believe is because eating sugary foods may relieve stress by releasing chemicals in the brain that increase reward feelings says study author Femke Rutters, Ph.D
Here is an alternative to relieving that stress without putting down empty calories.
You could exercise. Even a 10 minute vigorous and intense exercise session can burn up those stress hormones and bring a feeling of calm so that you aren’t tempted to pig out on junk food and sweets.
If you need a sweet tooth craving then try these healthy snacks as they are all organic, dark chocolate (benefits your heart) and only 180 calories.

Natural Sugar vs High Fructose Corn Syrup: The battle wages on

"Scientists see little dietary benefit in food companies’ scramble to swap out processed sweeteners for natural ones" quote from Chicago Tribune.
It looks like the food manufacturers are giving in to all the bad media coverage of high fructose corn syrup. It appears their sales must be dropping for them to switch their formulas from using high fructose corn syrup to regular sugar.
Does this solve the problem though?
Not at all!!!
You see 5-10 years from now we will still have millions overweight and some advocate group will blame the food manufacturers for using sugar in their products.
Never mind that 5-10 years earlier their were blaming HFCS in foods for the obesity problem. They will somehow forget about that.
When are we going to blame the individual?
Last time I was at the grocery store I don’t remember any food manufacturer putting their foods in my cart. I distinctly remember going through the checkout lane and paying for the foods that I put in my cart all by myself. Ok, my daughter Hailey may have put in a few things into the cart, but you get my point.
This article in the Chicago Tribune I think is pretty darn accurate.
HFCS is not good for us. If we eat too much of it yes it can lead to weight problems, but so can sugar. All they are doing is replacing one bad ingredient for another bad ingredient.
It is up to the consumer to make a choice in regards to what they are going to put in their mouth.
We already know the food manufacturers are going to do what they can to sell more foods and convince you to buy their foods.
It is up to you to say yes or no.
I want to hear what you think about this topic and who is to blame. Who should step up and take responsiblity?
Let me hear your thoughts.
