Sugar-Free Carrot Cake/Muffin Recipe
As you start on The Body Ecology Diet, we hope to introduce you to several alternative sweeteners that can provide the sweet taste you crave without the harmful effects of sugar. Be Sweet™ is an ideal zero-calorie baking companion and is also safe for diabetics.
Body Ecology is first and foremost a system of health and healing, but eating for your health doesn’t mean you have to feel deprived. While eating the Body Ecology Way could help to relieve and manage a number of chronic conditions, including depression, weight problems, premature aging, Candida, hormonal imbalance, and autoimmune disorders, we still believe in enjoying foods that are as tasty as they are nourishing. We’ve even left room for dessert.
