Sugar and refined carbohydrates are undeniably linked to diabetes. Researchers

around the world have come to the conclusion that the consumption of refined

sugar is detrimental to the health of people without diabetes and disastrous for

those with it. Furthermore, excess sugar in the blood can cause the onset of

type 2 diabetes. First, however, what exactly is diabetes?

 

According to Bruce Fife ND, " Diabetes is all about sugar -- the sugar in our

bodies known as blood sugar or blood glucose. Every cell in our bodies must have

a constant source of glucose in order to fuel metabolism. Our cells use glucose

to power processes such as growth and repair. When we eat a meal the digestive

system converts much of our food into glucose, which is released into the

bloodstream. The hormone insulin, which is secreted by the pancreas gland, moves

glucose from the blood and funnels it into the cells so it can be used as fuel.

If the cells are unable to get adequate amounts of glucose, they can literally

starve to death. As they do, tissues and organs begin to degenerate. This is

what happens in diabetes. "

 

Obesity largely contributes to the inability of cells to obtain sufficient

amounts of glucose, according to " Green Tea " author Nadine Taylor. Taylor writes

that too many fat cells crowd the other cells in the body and make it difficult

for insulin to reach its destination. According to Ralph T. Golan, 90 percent of

type 2 diabetes sufferers are obese, a result directly linked to poor dietary

choices and a sedentary lifestyle. Michael Castleman, author of " Blended

Medicine, " says, " Type 2 diabetes is strongly associated with a lack of exercise

and a poor diet -- one that's low in fiber and high in sugar, fat and animal

products. It develops slowly, usually over several years, and rarely produces

dramatic symptoms. For this reason, many people with type 2 diabetes have no

idea that they are sick. In fact, the American Diabetes Association estimates

that only half of Americans with type 2 diabetes have been diagnosed. "

 

Sugar is so detrimental to human health that many believe it would fail the FDA

approval process if such a hypothetical attempt were made. Refined white flour

would fare no better. Both are nutritionally empty substances. According to Dr.

Robert C. Atkins, founder of the popular Atkins diet, " Sugar has no nutritional

value and is directly harmful to your health. Despite vociferous attempts to

defend it, there are studies that clearly show how harmful (and even deadly in

the case of diabetics) its effects can be. " According to Nancy Appleton, PhD,

author of " Lick the Sugar Habit, " there are 78 metabolic consequences of

consuming sugar. Since the Life Extension Foundation estimates that the average

American consumes more than 150 pounds of sugar per year, those 78 metabolic

consequences can be considerable. continues on page 2 ->
