14 Days. Zero Sugar-Coating
What Is a Sugar Detox?
The Sugar Detox is a 14-day reset for your brain, body, and cravings.
It’s not about willpower, weight loss, or cutting joy. It’s about giving your nervous system a break from sugar highs, mood swings, and energy crashes — so you can finally feel calm, clear, and you again.
You’ll get daily lessons (and audioguides too) to help you:
- ✅ Cut cravings
- ✅ Rewire your taste buds
- ✅ Sleep better
- ✅ Think more clearly
- ✅ Actually enjoy real food again
Wait, what counts as sugar?
We’re hitting pause on:
- White sugar, brown sugar, cane sugar
- Honey, maple syrup, agave, coconut sugar
- Artificial sweeteners (sucralose, aspartame)
- Natural zero-cal sweeteners (stevia, monk fruit)
If it tastes like a treat and your brain lights up like a pinball machine, we’re skipping it for now.
Can I still eat fruit?
Yes. Real, whole fruit stays.
- Berries, apples, bananas — all good.
- We’re not afraid of nature. We’re calming the chaos.
(Just maybe don’t blend four bananas into a smoothie and call it breakfast.)
What are we avoiding?
Here’s the quick hit list:
- Desserts, pastries, candies, chocolate
- Sweetened drinks: soda, juice, oat milk with cane sugar
- Sauces, dressings, flavored yogurts, granola bars
- “Sugar-free” snacks with artificial sweeteners
- Basically, if it’s sweetened on purpose — we pause it
What can I have?
- 🫐 Whole fruit
- 🥚 Protein
- 🥒 Crunchy things
- 💧 Sparkling water, black coffee, herbal tea
- 🥑 Healthy fats
- 💛 Clarity, energy, and balance
Before You Start: The SWEET Checklist
Give yourself 10 minutes to set up for a smoother ride (and fewer meltdown moments):
1. Know the Detox Rhythm
- Days 1–3: Cravings may yell
- Days 4–6: Energy may dip
- Days 7–10: Your brain clears
- After that: You’re vibing
2. Clear Out the Triggers
Take 5 minutes to scan your kitchen:
- ❌ Candy
- ❌ Flavored yogurt
- ❌ “Healthy” bars with honey or syrup
You don’t need to throw it all away — just move it out of easy reach.
3. Stock Your Sweetish Staples
You’re not depriving — you’re upgrading.
- 🥚 Protein (eggs, tempeh, tuna)
- 🫐 Fruit (berries, apples)
- 🥒 Crunchy (cucumbers, nuts, seaweed snacks)
- 💧 Water + electrolytes
- ☕ Coffee/tea (unsweetened)
4. Pick a Daily Lesson Time
AM? PM? Mid-snack crisis? Choose a time you’ll stick with.
Mornings are golden — but consistency is sweeter.
5. Tell Someone (Optional, but Powerful)
Accountability changes everything.
Tell a friend. Or don’t. But if you do, it helps.

7. Permission to Be Human
You won’t do this perfectly. That’s not the point.
You’ll learn, reset, and feel different. That is.
