Calnaturale™ svelte™

The story with sugar we all know is:

We like sweet things; a little is OK, and a lot is not good for any of us. This is why Svelte uses just the right amount of different sugars to create the optimal nutrition for you.

Too much sugar, and especially when the sugar is NOT balanced with the correct amount of protein, sends your blood sugar bouncing all over the place – first too high, then too low, and all within a 1 to 2 hour period. The impacts of having blood sugar level vary wildly in your body are several, and none of them are good:

First of all, high sugar levels put a huge sugar load into your bloodstream, causing the typical blood sugar level to bounce way too high.

This sugar “spike” causes a high demand for insulin, which is your body’s way of trying to correct the unhealthy condition of too much sugar in your bloodstream.

Your body then creates a massive shot of insulin, causing the blood sugar to “Bounce” too low. The depletion in blood sugar makes you weak, maybe even shaky, and certainly feeling quite hungry from the low blood sugar.

Unfortunately, the strong hunger is not the worst part of this blood sugar bounce. Spikes in blood sugar also cause your adrenal glands to begin releasing the stress hormone cortisol into your bloodstream. When this happens, your body is put under an oxidative stress load. Ugh. The consequences for your health are quite negative. This type of oxidative stress has cardiovascular implications, can lead to Type II diabetes and more. This isn’t good.

At CalNaturale Svelte, we want you to have the right amount of sugar for some energy, but not enough to cause the sugar high/low bounce with all the health consequences. Therefore, we use 9 grams of Organic Sugar in each full bottle. And roughly one third of this sugar occurs naturally in the Organic Soy Milk.

Creating the proper blend of sugar and complex carbohydrates is a fine balance, and is another example of the nutrition that Svelte provides for you.
