Sugar is foundational to life and provides energy, but refined/processed sugars can damage our health. This Guide to Sugar helps you understand both sides of the sugar debate while helping your decide the best sugar to use, for your family, and in each situation.
In this episode, I'm talking with David Stelzer, founder and CEO of Azure Standard about why Azure does not carry conventional refined white sugar (it's insane really).
And I'm picking David's brain about every detail of all the sweetener options that I might choose .
David dives into why conventional sugar production utilizes damaging practices like glyphosate spraying, artificial fertilizers, and burning leaves.
We talk about how Azure Standard aims to maintain a higher standard and not compromise on questionable ingredients. -
David explains why it's best to transition your family's diet through a progression, not radical changes. And he describes how Azure carries products to help folks transition from standard American diet to healthier options.
