Interested In Joining The Challenge?
***In general you can only eat Meat and Vegetables to truly be sugar free. For the sake of this challenge, think whole, single sourced foods. Processed meat will have sugar. Any dairy product will have sugar as it’s naturally occurring in lactose. Nuts have naturally occurring sugar as well. We will consider anything under 30g of sugar for the day to be “No Sugar”. If you fast for 24 hours or actually have zero grams of sugar you will get bonus points for that day. Please see us for more details!
