Haha! Oh yeah, the food industry knows very well how to make completely addicting food. And oreos are one of their masterpieces!
I have discovered I have systemic candida. The rash it caused on my stomach and back is/was so heinous that even the sight of sugar scares the crap out of me. Talk about aversion therapy. I knew I was eating too much sugar (aside from having a really healthy diet) so I guess I had to wait until it got THAT bad. Right before the Candida took over my sugar cravings were more intense than any alcohol craving. I guess I can look at this outbreak as an intervention from my HP. I had no choice but to stop. And I'm quite sure my insane alcoholism is what caused the dysbiosis in the first place.
Honestly, I feel so much better since completely cutting out sugar and refined carbs 2 weeks ago. And I've lost an honest 4lbs which for me is huge. I'm pretty pumped up about it.
Throw out the oreos!
