LOOK: I MAY NOT BE A DOCTOR, BUT I CAN DEFINITELY ATTEST TO HOW DR. DARYL has helped change my life.
For years I had a candy drawer at home that I kept fully stocked and would dip into whenever I felt the faintest urge for sugar. I knew that sugar isn’t good for you, but I figured that everybody needed to have some kind of vice, right? What was so bad about rewarding myself with something sweet?
What I didn’t fully appreciate is just how addictive sugar truly is.
When I first met Dr. Daryl (my daughter Lola’s pediatrician recommended him after Lola came home sick from camp), he taught me how important it was to get acidic foods out of my daughter’s diet, and out of my diet too. I did his alkaline cleanse and saw great results—some recurring aches and pains that I had chalked up to getting older completely went away. I was so inspired, I got rid of the candy drawer. If only my cravings had disappeared with it! Sadly, they didn’t. When life got super busy with work, or the kids, or both, the urge to eat jelly beans would come on so strong it took everything I had not to send my husband out to the deli to pick some up.
When I talked to Dr. Daryl about my cravings, he explained that sugar is eight times more addictive than cocaine. That helped me feel better about having them, but I still didn’t know how I would prevent the cravings from happening in the first place.
That’s why I was thrilled when Dr. Daryl told me he’d developed a program to help people quit sugar. Keeping cravings at bay while feeling full, happy, and not in any way deprived? Sign me up!
I’ve followed Dr. Daryl’s Get Off Your Sugar program for a little over a year. It’s doable, it’s delicious, and I’ve seen the proof that it works too: Last year, when I turned fifty, Dr. Daryl tested my biological age, and it showed I had the physical health of a thirty-five-year-old. Clearly, we’re doing something right!
I love how Dr. Daryl focuses on what you need to add to your diet instead of what to take away, but I think what really makes his approach so powerful is that he helps you get off—and stay off—the stress-eating roller coaster. I know it’s so hard not to rely on your favorite sweet treats when life gets tough, and it can be difficult to manage everything life throws at you, but hear me out: thanks to Dr. Daryl, you’re holding in your hands a proven strategy and plan that will help you through the tough times. When you strength eat every day, you’re better equipped to handle challenges that arise, whether that’s a global pandemic or something closer to home. You also don’t need to rely on your willpower to fight through your cravings—you can save your strength for other things! (And you don’t have to give up all the things you love; as Dr. Daryl says, “it’s not about deprivation, it’s about moderation.”)
Whether you are ready to completely overhaul your diet or you already eat pretty healthy but could use some guidance to get off the sweet stuff, the Get Off Your Sugar program will help your energy skyrocket, your sleep quality improve, and your weight find its natural balance. A few short weeks from now, your friends will start asking what you’ve been doing because they’ll notice an undeniable glow! Better yet, you’ll know that you’re taking great care of your health (and if you’re a parent, modeling for your kids how they can do it too). It’s a delicious paradox: when you get off your sugar, life gets truly sweet.
