Sugar
More that 100 years ago mankind learned to refine sugar from sugar cane, sugar beets, and other plants and since then the resulting refined sugar has wreaked havoc on the human population.
We love sugar’s sweet taste, but underlying the consumption of refined sugar is the insidious manmade disease called diabetes. Sugar diabetes shows no respect for human bodies and often results in lifelong disability that imposes a huge cost to both the person who has the disease and society. Blindness, lost limbs and kidney failure is common.
Confirming this result is this story from India. 40 years ago Indian people adopted Coke (7tsp sugar every 8 oz) cola to replace the lack of fresh drinking water. Now, one of seven Indians suffers from sugar diabetes giving India 50 million handi-caps to show for it. India produces and attaches more artificial limbs than any other country. Bolivia and other third world countries also replaced water with Coke and suffer the disease making Coke the number one contributor to sugar diabetes. Now Coke is even more dangerous with HFCS (high fructose corn syrup 39G) has replaced sugar as a sweetener.
Diabetes is not confined to third world countries. In New York City, one in eight people are diabetic. 103 years of sugar laced products are the major contributors to this insidious manmade disease.
There are historic irresponsible actions from Coke, the sugar industry and in the medical field who determined that refined sugar is safe. The reality is that the sweetener industry would fail if the truth were known. Modern medicine would also be damaged as their income depends on sick people, especially ones that require drugs daily. Diabetes is a manmade disease that proves maintaining a growing economy is more important than keeping people well.
We are addicted to sweet but poisoned by sugar. The substitutes that are offered are equally and perhaps even more damaging. In particular high fructose corn syrup and synthetic sweeteners as Nutra-Sweet and Equal. The industries that produce this poison lead our FDA by the nose in spite of the fact that there are viable substitutes to satisfy our sweet tooth.
Diabetes is rare in Japan and the Japanese live longer and healthier because they use stevia products instead of refined sugar to make food and drink sweet. FDA is trying to outlaw stevia and you should know why. Growing and processing refined sugar is a powerful lobby in the halls of our government, so don’t expect them to fix the atrocity. You have to do it on your own. Read the label and put it back on the shelf. Teach your kids. Dependence or independence is up to you. You cannot depend on government to protect you.
Nature cure is effective in curing diabetes. It is a leap of faith to find your way outside of the modern medical paradigm but you owe it to yourself to try.
