ISOFRACT® Cheesecake? Yes Please :)

If you’re like most people giving up sweets can be the hardest part in achieving your ideal physique. We’re naturally drawn to sweets because we’re primates – creatures that who’ve sustained for millions of years and have evolved by eating fruit. Our hankering for sweets is engrained in our DNA and we’ll go to great lengths to satisfy our cravings.

In fact, in the 1990s researchers studied chimpanzees and their willingness to endure physical pain in order to satisfy their sweet cravings. The Chimps would break in to beehives with their fingers, completely ignoring the swarms and stings of angry bees just to get down like Winnie-the-Pooh burring their hands in the hives for honey. With such a strong affinity for sweets it’s no wonder that we as humans, get so tempted to cheat on our diets and fulfill on our desires.
