Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Sugar affects every organ negatively. Several organs directly affect liver function, so you have to understand how the liver works for this information to be meaningful. Chocolate is fatty and has caffiene in it which stresses the liver. Sugar can suppress the immune system Sugar upsets the mineral relationships in the body Sugar can produce a significant rise in triglycerides Sugar contributes to the reduction in defense against bacterial infection (infectious diseases) Sugar reduces high density lipoproteins Sugar leads to chromium deficiency Sugar can increase fasting levels of glucose Sugar interferes with absorption of calcium and magnesium Sugar can cause hypoglycemia Sugar can produce an acidic digestive tract Sugar contributes to obesity High intake of sugar increases the risk of Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis Sugar can cause changes frequently found in person with gastric or duodenal ulcers Sugar greatly assists the uncontrolled growth of Candida Albicans (yeast infections) Sugar can cause gallstones Sugar can cause a decrease in insulin sensitivity Sugar can increase cholesterol High sugar intake increases advanced glycation end products (AGEs)(Sugar bound non- enzymatically to protein) Sugar can interfere with the absorption of protein Sugar can contribute to diabetes Sugar can change the structure of protein Sugar can promote an elevation of low density lipoproteins (LDL) High sugar intake can impair the physiological homeostasis of many systems in the body Sugar lowers the enzymes ability to function Sugar can cause a permanent altering the way the proteins act in the body Sugar can increase the size of the liver by making the liver cells divide Sugar can increase the amount of liver fat Sugar can increase kidney size and produce pathological changes in the kidney Sugar can damage the pancreas Sugar can increase the body's fluid retention Sugar is enemy #1 of the bowel movement Sugar plays a role in pancreatic cancer in women Sugar can cause depression Sugar increases the risk of gastric cancer Sugar and cause dyspepsia (indigestion) Sugar can increase the insulin responses in humans consuming high-sugar diets compared to low sugar diets Sugar can cause less effective functioning of two blood proteins, albumin, and lipoproteins, which may reduce the body’s ability to handle fat and cholesterol Sugar can lead to the formation of kidney stones Diets high in sugar can cause free radicals and oxidative stress High sugar diet can lead to biliary tract cancer Sugar increases the concentration of bile acids in stools and bacterial enzymes in the colon Sugar increases estradiol (the most potent form of naturally occurring estrogen) in men Sugar combines and destroys phosphatase, an enzyme, which makes the process of digestion more dificult Sugar can be a risk factor of gallbladder cancer The body changes sugar into 2 to 5 times more fat in the bloodstream than it does starch Sugar may induce cell death -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- " Guenthner, " <reflexnrg@...> wrote: > Hello Kick Ass Hep-C Fighters & Slayers, > > Question: How does Sugar & Chocolate affect your > liver? > > Have a excellent day with endless blessings, > > NRG > reflexnrg@... > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
