Default Re: What's wrong with Sugar? Convince me it's poison, please?

I've read Sugar Blues and Suicide by Sugar.

I am getting ready to read The New Sugar Busters ( I accidently got it, thought it was Sugar Blues) and The Sugar Fix.

I need to read this thread.

Then...I will cut out HFCS and whatever other corn syrups are in "stuff."

After that I'd LIKE to cut out sugar, but I am not sure if I can.

I'd have to give up Papa John's pizza...so maybe I could cut waaaaay back and only have pizza once a month?

If you set priorities to giving up "poisons", give up the HFCS FIRST! That's the biggie one, and one that has been shown to actually scar the liver and cause no end of problems. A little cane sugar now and again will not kill you. HFCS will. I, personally, think that putting HFCS in practically all sorts of processed foods is the foremost culprit to the pancreatic cancer explosion we're seeing. Pancreatic cancer is exclusively environmentally based (food, environment, etc.) rather than having genetic markers, and it used to be rare and only older people would get it. Now, not so much. My dad died with it, three people out of our church have died with it in the last year (not to mention those friends and family of our church member that have been dx'd in the last few years). Many, many more people are being dx'd with it in the last few years, and I really think it's all because of the things we do to food these days, including HFCS being a main culprit.
