Sugar attack - Rapid heartbeat

I haven't been eating much sugar lately, but today, I wanted to have some ice cream. I bought a Good Karma (non-dairy) ice cream, and after I ate it, my heart began to beat rapidly. This must be the "drug" feeling some people say sugar gives them. I've never felt it before because sugar had always been part of my normal diet. Now that I took a break from sugar and ate some refined sugar, I can see why sugar is addictive. This firsthand experience will leave me reexamining my sugar consumption from here on out. I don't feel so good right now. I feel sort of numb, actually. I never thought I'd face a day when sugar made me feel sick.
