Why Going Cold Turkey Works
Slowly cutting down on sugar often leads to constant negotiation with yourself — a little here, a little there. But sugar is addictive, and even small amounts can keep your cravings alive. Going cold turkey gives your body and brain a chance to reset and break free for good.
This approach is most effective when paired with tools that block your perception of sweet flavors and support your metabolism, like our Sugar-Busting Tea Bundle, which includes Sugarproof Tea and Sleek & Slender Tea.

Sugarproof Tea helps break the sugar habit by filling in your sweet receptors, turning treats bland and flavorless. It blocks 75% to 100% of the sweet flavor and is 100% caffeine-free. Tart and refreshing, with notes of cranberry and cinnamon.

Sleek & Slender Tea supports your sugar-free journey by easing cravings, improving digestion and boosting metabolism. It also blocks up to 50% of sweet flavor and contains a small amount of caffeine. Uplifting and refreshing, with ginger and mint.
