The Standard American Diet sneaks in about 71g of added sugar each day, twice the limit for women, from everyday stuff like a full soda, yogurt with granola, sports drinks, and a cupcake bite.
​
It adds up fast because sugar hides in so many “healthy” or convenient foods and drinks, hitting 109g without you even noticing.
​
Over time, this raises blood sugar, stirs inflammation, shifts gut bacteria balance, cuts white blood cells’ ability to fight germs, and links to extra weight, higher heart risks, blood sugar issues, and mood dips.

Did you know simple habits can transform your gut health?

Ice-cold drinks constrict stomach vessels. This slows motility and enzyme activity while stressing the gut lining. Switch to room temperature for smoother digestion.
​

Carbonated drinks release CO2 gas that expands in the stomach. That triggers bloating, reflux, and microbiome imbalance favoring inflammation. Choose still beverages instead.
​

Chew thoroughly 20-40 times per bite to blend in saliva enzymes like amylase. This signals stomach acid and prevents gut overload from large food particles.
​

Sit to eat. It activates rest-and-digest mode for optimal enzyme release and nutrient absorption. Standing meals divert blood flow and slow transit.
​

Cut processed foods for 3 months. Their emulsifiers and additives erode microbial diversity and starve pathogens. Whole foods rebuild beneficial strains.

2026 is YOUR year of better health—imagine waking up clear-headed, not puffy, and actually having enough energy left after work to live your life. The Wellness Way’s No Sugar January is only 5 days in, and so many people are already noticing less bloat, fewer cravings, and more “okay, I can actually do this” moments.
​
Instead of another resolution that dies by mid-January, this is about small, doable changes: choosing real food most of the time, having a community when you want to quit, and letting your body show you what it feels like to run on something better than sugar highs and crashes. If that sounds like the kind of year you want, you can still jump in—sign up free at the link and join the Facebook challenge page so you’re not doing it alone.
