Ordinary table sugar is made up of a glucose and a fructose molecule. Its GI is 65+. Honey is 61+. When eaten along with proteins and fats- such as with milk, or in a dessert- these are slowed down even further.

So, I decided a few months back now to start eating sugar again. To stop with the stevia. To moderate the starches, although not avoid them altogether. To allow myself honey in my tea, and to eat homemade ice cream, orange juice, and to let go of guilt around sugar.

I feel good. I feel well fed. I feel sweetness has been fully allowed back in my life. I feel nourished and nurtured.
