It would be fair to assume that almost everyone on the planetloves sugar and sweet foods. Processed sugar is in many productsand is a key ingredient for baking. It seems that everyone has asweet tooth for some sugar food in one way or another. Mostpeople know to limit their intake of processed sugar, however,what most people don’t know is that sugar is one of the worstingredients to put into your body. The chemical reaction ofsugar in the body acts as a poison. Studies show that sugar hasdrug like effects in the body.
Processed sugar has many harmful effects throughout the body andcan cause major imbalances in the organ systems. You could saythat sugar tends to throw off the homeostatic balance of thewhole body by increasing the production of adrenaline by manytimes. In essence, sugar stimulates the nervous system byinducing a flight or fight response.
This is obviously not a healthy process. This intense reactionof the body increases the production of cortisone, whichsuppresses immune function and can lead to other healthdisorders.
The daily intake of sugar leads to many other imbalances andmalfunctioning of the bodily processes. High sugar consumptionleads to an overly acidic body and in turn will cause the bodyto strip nutrients from its reserves to counterbalance thiseffect. This can eventually cause the body to take calcium fromthe bones and teeth since calcium is the primary mineral used toneutralize high acid in the cells. Osteoporosis and arthriticconditions can result from this continued process.
Sugar and its Link to Weight Gain
Excess sugar consumption will eventually effect every organ inthe body. Primarily, sugar is stored in the liver as glucose.Since the liver’s capacity to store sugar in this form islimited, the liver will start to expand almost like a balloonwith continued daily sugar intake. When the livers’ capacity hasbeen filled, the excess glycogen (glucose) is returned to theblood in the form of fatty acids (fat). The fatty acid compoundsare then taken to various parts of the body and are stored asfat deposits in the buttocks, belly, breasts and hips sincethese are the most inactive body parts.
The consumption of excess processed (refined) carbohydrates hasthe same effect on the body. Eating foods with refined whiteflours and other enriched products can cause the samephysiological effects. Consuming excess pasta, rice, chips,pretzels, and other high processed carbohydrates can lead to fatdeposits on the body.
Many people do not understand how eating excess pasta or ricecan cause weight gain since these foods has very minutequantities of fat and calories in them. The secret is…it is notthat important how much fat or calories a food has. The real keyis what biological effect does a food have in the body.
When the inactive body parts have become filled with fat theneventually the excess fatty acid deposits will become storedaround major organ systems such as the heart and kidneys. Thisleads to the degeneration of these organs and in turn will causepoor health. This can result in poor immune response, poorcirculation, high blood pressure, and can even impact brainfunctioning.
A False Energy High
Too much sugar intake gives one a false sense of energy. Whenyou eat a sweet food, your energy will go up, however, it onlyfeels that your energy is going up. In fact, this false energyis really your body being stimulated via the flight or fightresponse that I spoke of earlier. After this reaction has wornoff, your energy levels will come crashing down as most peopleexperience every day after they have eaten a high sugar food.
Most children that have ADD can completely heal themselves justby eliminating processed sugars in their diets. Children eat waytoo many processed sugars. The behaviors and bodily responsesthat these children feel are the flight or fight responses oftheir nervous systems. All forms of processed sugars such asnutra sweet, cane juice, corn syrup, brown sugar, splenda,powdered sugar and others have the same effect on the body. Thechemical structures of these compounds are very harmful to thebody and should not be consumed on a frequent basis.
Fruit sugars are very healthy for you. The monosaccharides(simple sugars) in these natural foods are in a structure thatare beneficial to your cells. Fruit sugar has a much differenteffect on your body than does processed sugar. Fruit sugarsnourish and energize the body naturally. This is true energy ascompared to the false energy one gets from processed sugars.Your cells require the simple sugars in fruits consistentlysince they serve to fuel the body with the best substances. Makesure you consistently eat many fruits a day. I would recommendeating 4 to 5 pieces of different fruits a day for better health.
The True Bitterness of nutra sweet & sucralose (splenda tm)
What you are about to discover is information that has beenknown for quite some time by various health organizations.Please take this information seriously because there are agendasin place to hide this truth and to use it against you.
Aspartame (nutra sweet) is actually worse to consume than sugar.This technical name includes the following brands of sweeteners-(equal, nutra sweet, spoonful and equal measure).
Be advised that these compounds are very powerful and can causesevere biological effects in your body. To say that they aretoxic is an understatement. The manufacturer of these compoundsknows of the dangers in consuming regular amounts of aspartamesubstances. As I have already said there is an agenda forputting these compounds into various products.
If you want to know the true agenda then research it foryourself. I am not one who attempts to prove anything to anyone.I challenge you to do your own research and see if you can provewhat I am saying wrong. In trying to prove me wrong, you willprove me right.
The Breakdown of Aspartame
Aspartame is a volatile substance, meaning that it breaks downvery readily under normal storing conditions. Primarily, allaspartame compounds break down into methanol (alcohol), which isa known neurotoxin. The methanol in time then will break downinto formaldehyde that is a highly reactive chemical that isdamaging to the cells and genetics of the body.
This process can cause a number of neurodegenerative diseasessuch as alzheimers, lupus, multiple sclerosis (MS), andparkinson’s disease. The methyl alcohol that forms fromaspartame is thousands of times more potent than the alcoholfound in a normal alcoholic beverage.
Reactions to aspartame products include the following:headaches, nausea, depression, fatigue, heart palpitations,slurred speech, breathing difficulties, memory loss, seizuresand even death. Consuming high amounts of aspartame can alsoincrease your cravings for carbohydrates. I explained earlierthat consuming high amounts of empty carbohydrates (refinedflours, pasta, rice, chips) will lead to weight gain.
Primarily, the effects of aspartame chemicals in the body seemto alter key hormones thus creating imbalances inneurotransmitters and blocking other hormone precursors.
So, why haven’t you heard about these dangers before now? Let’ssee…the diet industry is a trillion dollar market to manyorganizations. Obviously, they don’t want this secretinformation to get out to public ears if you know what I mean.
Aspartame & Children
Children love to consume sweets on a daily basis. Many of thefood products that these children are consuming have aspartamesweeteners in them. I would advise all parents to get their kidsoff of aspartame food items. These foods are not healthy forthem. There are plenty of healthy alternatives for any of theitems that they enjoy.
Email me and I will give you loads of information. Many kids arediagnosed with ADD and other mood disorders. Many of theseconditions are being classified as hyper, behavioral problemsand others when in fact these children are being affected by thefoods they eat. Look at a normal child’s food intake for anaverage day and you will find that they eat way too much sugarand items with aspartame compounds in them.
This daily consumption of these sweeteners has a harmful effecton their nervous system and therefore becomes expressed as mooddisorders and behavioral problems. Take these kids off sugar andthese sweeteners and watch them improve.
Pregnant Mothers & Aspartame
If you or anyone you know is pregnant then I would say just stayaway from these dangerous sweeteners forever. Make sure you readlabels and make it a conscious intent to have the whole familykeep clean of these products. It will help your whole family outI assure you.
If you are pregnant and consume aspartame foods you will only behurting the development of the child. Doing so can causeneurological imbalances and other cellular damage. You are alsohurting yourself. It is not worth the price just to have yourdiet soda. Please educate yourself more on this topic for it cansave your health and the baby’s health.
Products to Stay Away From
If you drink diet soda then are you most likely consumingaspartame. Most diet sodas and many other beverages aresweetened with one of the aspartame sugar substitutes. STAY AWAYFROM ALL PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THE VARIOUS FORMS OF ASPARTAME!These include aspartame, nutra sweet, splenda, spoonful, equal.Read your labels and throw away all items that have thesecompounds in them. Take responsibility for your diet. If youchoose to continue to consume aspartame after reading thischapter well then you are the one to pay the consequences.
What Will I Use To Sweeten My Drinks & My Food
Relax! I know you enjoy sugar and do not want to give up greattasting foods and beverages. You don’t have to. There are somegreat natural sugar alternatives that I feel taste better thansugar and the other toxic substances mentioned earlier.
To sweeten your drinks you can use Stevia. Stevia is a naturalherb that is actually hundreds of times sweeter than regularsugar. It has no fat, carbohydrates or calories and is perfectlysuitable for people with diabetes, low carb diets and peoplewith candida and other parasitic conditions. Stevia does notcause spikes in blood sugar and has a nourishing effect on thebody. It has been used for centuries among various cultures.
You can get stevia at any health food store in the dietarysupplement section. There are 2 products: 1 is a liquidconcentrate- I recommend this for sweetening beverages like teasand shakes. The other is a ground up version and is in powderform. I recommend this for foods like cereal or oatmeal.
Agave syrup is an awesome food product. You will love thissweetener guaranteed. It is a compound similar to honey onlythat it comes from a cactus plant in the desert. I believe thatit tastes better than honey and can used on pancakes, cookiesand to sweeten baked goods. Try it and see! You can find this atmost health food stores. If they don’t have it then ask them tocarry it.
Rice syrup is also a good sugar alternative. It can be used invarious ways and has a pleasant taste.
Date Paste is very sweet and can be added to baked goods andpancakes, waffles and cookies.
Fruit Juice Concentrates can be used to sweeten baked foods aswell.
Barley Malt Syrup is another great alternative.
Honey – old time favorite for many, can be used also in variousways from sweetening drinks to sweetening baked goods. Use onlyorganic varieties.
I would say to just buy some of these sweeteners and see whichones you like. They are all healthy to consume on a daily basisand you will feel the difference. You will not miss regularsugar believe me. Your body will thank you I assure by eatingnatural sugars. If you want some recipes on how to use thesesweeteners then let me know via email.
The Truth About Sweet-N-Low
There have many reports that state Sweet-N-Low can becarcinogenic when used frequently. I remember when I was a childI heard that this can be a harmful compound to the body. Thetruth of the matter is that Sweet-N-Low is not harmful to yourbody. The chemical structure of this substance does not have anydamaging effects to your cells as do the sugar substitutesmentioned earlier.
I stated previously that the important thing of any compound isthe chemical structure and its biological effects once in thebody. Sweet-N-Low has no negative effects once in the body. Itis actually a good substitute for sugar.
So why have there been reports that state Sweet-N-Low can becarcinogenic? Do you remember where you heard this? I bet youpicked it up via your TV or some other media outlet. Whodivulged this information? I hope by now you are beginning tosee that there are some organizations that don’t want youknowing information that can benefit your health.
The misinformation about Sweet-N-Low was released to get you tonot want to ingest it so that you would then resort to othersugar substitutes…do you understand? Again, there are agendas inplace to get you to believe certain things about health andvarious food products.
They… (this includes all organizations colluding to carry outtheir corrupt agendas) program society via the media outlets(TV, magazines, newspapers, radio, etc). Then when people hearthe truth such as Sweet-N-Low is actually good they don’tbelieve it because they have been programmed to believe theopposite. My advice to you is stop watching the news and readingnewspapers. There is always misinformation in these outlets…notjust health information by the way. Name a subject and you havebeen programmed about it. Don’t believe me…great…I challenge youto research what I am saying.
So there you have it. You now know the truth about sugar andsugar substitutes. Please use this information immediately.
