I saw this somewhere and I thought I should share it with you guys.
1. Sugar has been observed to aggravate asthma, move mood swings, provoke personality changes, muster mental illness, nourish nervous disorders, hurry heart disease, grow gallstones, hasten hypertension and lead to arthritis.

2. Sugar is nothing more than empty calories, with no nutritional value and is very addictive.

3. Sugar contains none of the essential nutrients. While it does provide us with a sudden energy boost, this is just a quick fix as the calories in sugar are soon burned by the body. This means that you will need more sugar more often in order to maintain your energy level. And since sugar is so high in calories, the more of it that you eat, the more weight you will gain. Unless you remain extremely active, your body simply can’t keep up with the calorie conversion required when you consume large amounts of sugar.

4. Sugar can lead to the development of diabetes. As sugar is consumed, it raises the glucose levels in your blood, triggering the release of insulin. Glucose levels, where too high, can result in serious conditions such as blindness, loss of circulation and diabetic coma. The effects of diabetes are so serious that stabilising blood glucose cannot be emphasised enough. Insulin also promotes the storage of fat so that when you take in lots of sugar you are making way for rapid weight gain and elevated triglyceride levels, both of which have been linked to cardiovascular disease.

5. Sugar can seriously depresses the immune system (leading to a whole new set of problems) and upset the body’s mineral balance.

6. Sugar can be responsible for hyperactivity, anxiety, depression, concentration difficulties and grumpiness in children while contributing to eczema.

7. Sugar can reduce good cholesterol and increase bad cholesterol.

8. Sugar can increase the growth of Candida and other yeast infections.

9. Sugar interferes with the absorption of calcium and magnesium and can contribute to osteoporosis.

10. S

0. Sugar can promote tooth decay and lead to periodontal disease.

11. Sugar can cause headaches, including migraines.

12. Sugar can cause depression.

13. Sugar feeds cancer.

14. Sugar is responsible for almost half of all ageing that takes place inside skin cells. Sugar binds with collagen (the protein that makes up 75% of skin) and activates a chemical reaction called glycation which damages elastin and collagen – the two substances your skin needs to stay supple and elastic. In the end sugar will lead to wrinkles and sagging skin. Sugary foods can also trigger increased sebum production which will clog your pores and result in acne breakouts.

Too much of everything they say is bad. Poster, do you know when you totally avoid sugar it will lead to a problem in your body? I remember when my dad was told at the hospital that his sugar level is too low nd he needs to take "a bit" of it..
