My Journey to Energy, Wellness, and a Little Sweet Joy
I used to think I had only two options:
- Live in constant sugar crashes and cravings, or
- Give up sweetness altogether.
Neither worked for me.
As a serial snacker and self-proclaimed “sweet-tooth survivor,” I’ve danced that dizzy line between craving satisfaction and energy exhaustion. You know that 3 p.m. slump? Mine started at 11 a.m.
And every single time, I found myself reaching for something—biscuits, sweetened yoghurt, soft drinks, even “healthy” granola bars laced with hidden sugar. I’d get a quick high, followed by a crash that left me more drained, distracted, and guilty.
The Turning Point 🌀
My wake-up call came one hectic Saturday.
I had skipped breakfast (again), taken two spoons of cocoa powder and milk straight from the tin (don’t judge me), and somehow ended up nauseous in a supermarket aisle while shopping with my daughter. She looked up at me and said,
“Mummy, maybe you need real food.”
I laughed… but deep down, I knew she was right.
I needed real food. Real energy. Real sweetness.
A Sweet Discovery 🍯
It started with a conversation in a wellness group. Someone casually mentioned dates powder as a natural sweetener. No chemicals. No spikes. Just dried dates, ground into a rich, caramel-like powder you can use for pap, custard, oats, baking, tea—even smoothies.
Skeptical but curious, I tried it.
Day 1: I sprinkled it into my oatmeal.
Day 3: I added it to my Greek yoghurt and coconut flakes.
Day 5: I mixed the Dates Syrup into zobo and made a guilt-free drink.
And I couldn’t believe how good I felt. The crashes stopped. I was still enjoying sweetness, but this time—it worked with my body, not against it.
The Game-Changer 🎯
The biggest shift?
I wasn’t just “avoiding sugar.” I was feeding my body better—with fiber, minerals, and slow-releasing carbs. All from something that actually tasted better than sugar.
That’s when I stumbled on the free ebook:
“Sweet Health: 21 Delicious Ways to Use Dates for Energy, Wellness & Daily Nutrition.”
That little guide became my go-to. It taught me simple, tasty ways to use dates powder and syrup in my daily meals. And soon, even my kids were hooked.
Real Sweetness. Real Energy. Real Results. 🍃
Today, I still enjoy sweet things. But they come with energy, not exhaustion. With wellness, not worry. I use:
- Dates Powder in baking, oats, pap, tea, and smoothies.
- Dates Syrup in pancakes, zobo, dressings, and even akara batter (yes, it works!).
The best part? I no longer fear sugar.
I’ve found a better way.
