Sugar detox programs/retreats in Canada?
Looking for with sugar detox retreats or structured programs (by nutritionist?).
We are located in Canada. My husband struggles with sugar and gluten (he is gluten intolerant). He is so addicted that he has never wanted to consider cutting it out but he wants to try now. He’s admitted that it’s really hard for him to not binge eat sugary processed foods and eat late at night.
What’s scary is that first time we found out he was gluten intolerant, we cut it out for 6 months and he lost 40 lbs in the first month without changing anything else. But he went back to eating gluten and gained it right back. He tried cutting gluten again and weight won’t go down and he’s given up. Something is wrong. Sugar too. He is SO addicted to the taste of sweet. I’m willing to go on a sugar & gluten free diet with him (I’m used to gluten free diet now), cook, whatever it takes. But my words have no weight and I feel that a structured retreat or program under guidance of a professional would help.
I would appreciate ANY advice.
Any programs /retreats you know that’s really good/effective?
Any nutritionist/professionals with programs that keep you accountable?
What worked for you?
Did you eventually incorporate some sugar back into your diet?
Has anyone tried any programs successfully?
What motivated you? How did you get into the mindset of wanting this for yourself?
What was most difficult and how did you overcome it?
Did you crave sugar less after the detox?
