Purging suger and other substances from my body before they effect my system?

I read somewhere about the idea of eating dessert first as a means to purge the sugary intake via my main meal before it effects my system. It got me wondering if there is a way to do that better, so I figured id ask. Your thoughts?

  1. I don’t think there’s a reliable way to “purge” sugar before it affects your body. Eating dessert first or following it with a main meal won’t cancel it out. A balanced meal, sensible portions and regular activity are a better approach.

  2. That's an interesting question, . I've never heard that theory before, but I do know that it's always a good idea to balance something sugary with protein and fiber. Maybe that's why it works for some people. - Lori (Team Member)
