Sugar is present in many natural forms, such as fruit and vegetables, so you're never completely detoxing from sugar. It's the super-concentrated stuff added to processed foods or stirred into your tea that causes the problems. Quit adding granulated sugar, honey, maple sugar or any other form of intense sugar fix to your food and your taste buds will quickly adapt. Some people will adjust in less than a week but everyone is different and it's harder if you have a sweet tooth. One month should be enough to eliminate cravings and adapt to healthy eating.
