SUGAR


Sugar is a champion in all categories of bad carbohydrates. It is a product that can be dangerous when is consumed in large amounts,  unfortunately by  the majority of our contemporaries and especially, children.

Sugar has a negative role in nutrition and has consequences, not only in weight gain, but especially in fatigue, diabetes, gastritis, ulcers, tooth decay and coronary diseases.

The body has no use of an external sugar contribution (in fact, in this case the sugar is perturbed at glucose level), because body knows how to produce sugar alone under the form of glucose, when it needed.
Glucose is the only body fuel. As the body determines its sugar needs, the latter is made directly from fat reserves.

Fats are simply converted in glucose. Therefore, no longer eat sugar!

Sugar is actually a pure chemical product, which can lead to hypoglycemia, can generally perturb the metabolism, and cause so many digestive disorders.

Must know that sugar causes a vitamin B shortage, which is needed - in large quantities - to assimilate all carbohydrates.

Sugar, as any refined starches (white flour, white rice, etc..) is completely destitute of B vitamin.

Therefore, it will force the body to take vitamin B from available reserves, creating a shortage of whose consequences are generally: fatigue, depression, concentration, memory and perception difficulties.

Synthetic sweeteners:

The saccharine

It is not assimilated by the body and has a sweetness power by 350 times greater than the sucrose sugar.

Some types of saccharin have the advantage of being very stable in acidic environment and can support an average temperature.

Polyols

Unfortunately, in relation to sugar, polyols offer only one interest: not producing cavities.

They have almost the same energy value as the sugar, and in colon it release fatty acids which are reabsorbed. Their glycemic index is variable between 25 and 65.

They can provide, due to fermentation in the colon, bloating and even diarrhea. In other words, if we eat polyols or sugar, we are predisposed to gain weight. "No sugar" hide, often such polyols: sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, maltitol, lactitol, lycasin, polydextrose etc..
