All Rights Reserved SUGAR IMPACT QUIZ These are the symptoms most people consider “normal” – a natural part of life or aging. In reality, they are some of the most common signs of carb intolerance! Rate each category of symptoms below from 1 to 5. A score of 1 means that the symptom is a non-issue, while 5 means it’s a consistent or severe problem. Low or unstable energy 1 2 3 4 5 Sugar and carb cravings 1 2 3 4 5 Appetite 1 2 3 4 5 Poor mood and focus 1 2 3 4 5 1 Gas and bloating 1 2 3 4 5 Difficulty losing weight 1 2 3 4 5 Belly fat 1 2 3 4 5 YOUR TOTAL HOW DID YOU DO? This is not a quiz where you want to score high! The higher your score, the more your carb intolerance is affecting your health. A high score is considered A) a total score of 20 or above or B) a score of 4 or 5 in two or more symptoms. The good news is that the higher your score, the more dramatic your results will be on the Sugar Impact Diet! And of course, what you measure, you can improve. This quiz will serve as a benchmark to help you chart your progress throughout your Sugar Impact journey. Note: even if you are starting optimally, with a score of 2 or less in each symptom group or 12 or less overall, Breakthrough will help you avoid these sorts of symptoms down the line. 7 ©© 2018 2017 Copyright, Copyright, JJ JJ Virgin Virgin and and Associates.
