THE SECRET OF SUGAR.....WAY WAY TOO MUCH CONSUMPTION

ON  THE CANADIAN  FIFTH ESTATE  [CBC.CBC]

WAS  A  VERY  INFORMATIVE  DOCUMENTARY  TODAY  'THE  SECRETS  OF  SUGAR."

THE   AVERAGE  AMERICAN  CONSUMES  26  TEASPOONS  OF  SUGAR  A  DAY!!

THAT  AMOUNTS  TO  50  POUNDS  PER  YEAR  JUST  ON  ONE  BOTTLE  OF  COCO-COLA  PER  DAY.  

THE  COMPANIES  HAVE  WISED  UP  TO  THE  FACT  THAT  A  LITTLE  SUGAR  IN  JUST  ABOUT  EVERYTHING  GOES  A  LONG  LONG  WAY  IN  SALES.  AND  AS  ONE  EXPERT  ON  THE  CIGARET  COMPANY  DENIALS,  HE  FOUND  MANY  FOOD  PRODUCERS  USING  THE  SAME  DENIAL  TACTICS  AND  ARGUMENTS  AS  THE  CIGARET  COMPANIES  USED.

BOTTOM  LINE  WE  SHOULD  BE  ONE  THIRD  OF  THE  AMOUNT  OF  SUGAR  CONSUMPTION  THAT  WE  ARE  AT!

OUR  KIDS  GET  FAR  TOO  MUCH  SUGAR.

WE  ARE  IN  AN  EPIDEMIC  OF  OBESITY  AND  DIABETES.

YOU  NEED  TO  READ  LABELS.  NO  MORE  THAN  ONE  GLASS  OF  "NO  SUGAR  ADDED"  JUICES.......MY  DOCTOR  GAVE  ME  STRICT  ORDERS  ON  THAT.  MY  BLOOD  CONTAINED  WAY  MORE  SUGAR  FORM  DRINKING  NEARLY  TWO QUARTS  A  DAY  OF  NO-SUGAR  JUICE.  DID  NOT  FULLY  REALIZE  THE  AMOUNT OF  NATURAL  SUGAR  IN  FRUIT  JUICES.

A  LOT  OF  PRODUCTS  CONTAIN  SUGAR,  MANY YOU  NEVER  WOULD  HAVE THOUGHT.

GOOD  ORGANIC  HONEY  IS  THE  BEST  FOR  A  SWEETENER.

THERE  ARE  MANY  GOOD  THINGS  IN  NATURAL  ORGANIC  HONEY,  THE  BOOK  OF  PROVERBS  IN  THE  BIBLE  UPHOLD  THE  BENEFIT  OF  HONEY.....AGAIN  IN  MODERATION.

BOTTOM  LINE  AGAIN:  WE  IN  THE  WESTERN  WORLD  CONSUME  WAY  WAY  TO  MUCH  SUGAR.  EXAMINE,  BE  CAREFUL.  MORE  HEALTH  PROBLEMS  THAN  WE  MAYBE  EVER  THOUGHT  COME  FROM  TOO  MUCH  SUGAR  IN  OUR  DIETS.
