I have found since I stopped smoking & drinking (over a year) I began to notice how caffeine & sugar affected my moods. I am nearly 50 now, I suppose it's that time when you start to evaluate your health, whether it's a health scare, doctor's advice etc. Anyway, I started looking at sugar especially as it is nasty stuff. There is a good substitute called Xylitol which is a natural 'proper' sugar like granuals & its not bitter like traditional sweetners plus you can bake & cook with it, it tastes good on corn flakes etc. The quality of your life really does improve a lot without sugar. I sleep a lot better and am more calm in general. It can be difficult sometimes but my life without grog,ciggies,sugar & caffeine is much better for my head. Works for me, just my 2c is all.
