When you cut out sugar, several changes occur in your body. One of the first noticeable changes is in the shape of your face. It would go from being more roundish or puffy to a slimmer appearance. You will see this change in your face and definitely in your midsection. The reason you lose fat in the midsection is that your liver releases fat when you cut out sugar. The body is now forced to live off fat fuel because sugar and fat are the only two fuel sources in the body. Given the choice, the body will always burn sugar over fat. When you cut out sugar, you are left with only the fat fuel portion for your body to use up, starting with your liver.
Four main organs are significantly affected when you give up sugar. Your eyes will definitely improve; you will experience less blurriness and better vision. The eyes are very sensitive to sugar, which is why diabetics develop a condition called diabetic retinopathy, a destruction of the retina, the main nerve in the back of the eye. Your kidneys will also improve, as they are another organ that gets damaged by too much sugar.
Giving up sugar can help your brain sharpen and increase your concentration and focus. It improves your energy because, without sugar, your body is forced to burn fat. You will experience less stiffness, pain, and inflammation. Other benefits include weight loss, better skin, and improved insulin resistance.
