Even if you have no fear of kidney stones, the reason not to eat sugar are plentiful. Refined sugar-white or brown- does not feed into the blood through the liver. Instead it enters the blood stream too quickly and disturbs the level of the sugar in the blood which must remain constant for good health. Just one teaspoonful too much can cause havoc and so the body calls on the pancreas to deal with the emergency. The pancreas secretes excess insulin which eliminates more sugar than is necessary. Results? The sugar in the blood falls too low. The victim feels discomfort, depression and has a craving for something sweet. And so he consumes more sugar and up goes the sugar level, and the vicious circle continues. In other words, the more sugar you eat, the more you want. The dangerous of sugar don't stop with low blood sugar ( or hypoglycemia ). White sugar has also been implicated as the cause of tooth decay, disorders in blood chemistry that lead to diabetes ( as well as low blood sugar ), arteriosclerosis ( hardening of the arteries ), peptic ulcers, acne, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, appendicitis, cholecystitis ( inflammation of the gall bladder), pyorrhea and periodontal diseases involving sockets. If these reason aren't motivation enough to drop sugar from your diet, add the latest findings linking refined sugar, while already staggering continues to mount. If you haven't already done it, now is the time to eliminate this non-food that robs you of vitamins and minerals and upsets your body chemistry. Thank you all for reading my work.
