Guest guest Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 There are so many 'natural' things we can eat that are converted to needed glucose they are unnecessary to mention. It is unnecessary to eat table sugar or candy to get needed glucose. There are also so many evidences that processed sugar is not a good thing and one only need discuss this with a diabetic. The spike in insulin caused by high glycemic foods both processed and 'natural' has a negative effects on our system. I remember bragging to a Naturopath, over 40 years ago, about the wholesome fig juice I was giving our newborn son. He remarked that I should not overdo it because it was still a lot of Carbohydrates. Forty years ago! I have always held the belief that most of our troubles were with Carbs and, of course, those carbs mostly from processed foods and sweets. Perhaps that is why there is an epidemic of diabetes raging throughout the youth of America and perhaps the other Westernized nations. Joe C.
