If you haven't been up to date on your latest nutrition news then let me
inform you. Sugar and gluten have been the two culprits for fat-gain.
There is evidence for each one on how it contributes to gaining fat but
in moderation they are not nearly as bad as they are made out to be.
However, there is sugar and gluten in almost all processed foods that
Americans consume every single day. It is almost a guarantee if you eat
highly processed food you are eating too much sugar. Don't panic instead try some sugar-free almond cookies that
I love to make as a healthy treat. I know it sounds disgusting to some of
you but don't judge until you give them a try! They can be made with
chocolate chips or walnuts as well. Below is the recipe. Just subsisting
this recipe instead of grabbing your regular sugar-filled gluten cookies will
help you a long way. Let me know if you liked them or not.

1 cup all natural Stevia 1 teaspoon hot water
1 egg 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
