Silentgroper:◼️Not all starch is rapidly digested to glicose in small intestine Beans and all legumes are best sources of resistant starch. raw dried legumes have 20-30% resistant starch by weight. It is not metabolised in small intestine.thus reduces amount if glucose released into blood & lowering demand for insulin unlike highly starchy foods eg potatoes, rice & white bread with little resistant starch. ◼️Resistant starch is resistant to digestion and passes into large intestines as food source for healthy bacteria in colon. It acts similar to dietary fiber. Legumes eg beans, peas, have 20-25%protein by weight; 3x more protein than rice & wheat. --have dietary fiber 20% of weight ----65-72% by weight of carbohydrates including complex carbohydrates. 85% of the carbs/starch is resistant starch which maintains colon health. ◼️ Fully cooked legumes have 4-5% of total weight as resistant starch. 100g of beans has 154kilocalories; 27% protein; 24%fat; 50% carbs. (Mainly resistant starch). 2 Likes 1 Share

codemaniacs:Stop saying rubbish. Naturally occurring sugar in nature in fruits has lower glycemic index as a result of the good fibers present in fruits . You cannot compare processed table sugar or sugar in generally unhealthy carbonated drinks or nonsense fruit juice with sugar in natural fruit having the plum and all rich fibers to cushion the release of sugar into the bloodstream. It’s for a reason doctors advise to stay away from carbonated drinks and fruit juices and go for nartural fruits instead. 1 Like |

Silentgroper:All Starch is not digested to glucose in small intestine. Ever heard of resistänt starch? Resistant starch is considered both a dietary fiber and functiona fiber, depending on whether it is naturally in foods or added. https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/2015/11/16/ask-the-expert-legumes-and-resistant-starch/

Carbonated drinks and natural fruits like bananas are the same and have the same effects. Stop saying nonsense and stop spreading false information if you are not a victim of the effects of sugar. |

codemaniacs: I think you need to get glasses, because while no part of my comment said kids need sugar, there is also nothing wrong in healthy doses of sugar. And yes, kids are generally hyperactive when they take sweetened food. They would be fine all things being equal. Yes, there is organic sugar. You can't compare the sugar in fruits to the one bobo. You are the one that needs to stop quoting everyone with nonsense. 3 Likes |

codemaniacs:Ode! Stop spreading nonsense and stop spreading misinformation. Natural fruits have fiber and do not in any way compare with processed sugar in carbonáted drinks in any way, having no fiber So stfu !. How can you equate a bottle of carbonated drink with 0 fiber with fruit having dietary fiber? Only diabetics are advised to stay away from HIGH Glycemic index fruits like Bananas (62 GI), mangoes(60 GI), watermelon (76GI) , pineapple (66GI) grapes, and high GI vegetables like Carrots 🥕 etc and go for low GI vegetables ánd low glycemic index fruits like cherries, kiwi fruit, grapefruit, cabbage, broccoli etc Even beetroots vegetables, is not suitable for somebody with kidney disease or kidney stones who is kidney Ill. Doesn’t make beetroot’s harmful for people with normal kidneys 2 Likes |

pocohantas: Like I told OmonnakOdapig, "sugar affects me", so if you're not a victim of the effects of sugar then you have no right and moral justification to speak on the effects of sugar. Kids are naturally hyper without sweet foods it is their nature to be hyper. There is nothing like organic sugar. sugar is sugar. Sugar in fruits is the same as sugar in Bobo. I am quoting everyone with facts not the nonsense you and OmonnakOdapig are spreading. A friend of mine lost their 4 years old child due to such mentality.. so when I see such false information I take it personal so that people don't lose their children to such thinking. |

codemaniacs:All the fruits and vegetables mentioned have their glycemic indexes boldly highlighted. And only diabetics are advised to stay away from carrots and high GI fruits just as kidney stones patient are advised to stay away from beetroots vegetables.
Sugar in natural fruits have dietary fiber unlike added sugars in carbonated drinks with zero fiber. That is why Carbonated drinks are worse than natural fruits. 🔺 Only diabetics and people with insulin resistivity or diagnosed with fatty liver are advised to go for low glycemic index fruits & vegetables in lieu of high GI fruits/veggies. Just as kidney stones sick people have to stay away from beetroots vegetables & people with celiac disease have to avoid even natural foods containing gluten. ◾️Federal Drugs agency advises to limits ADDED sugars to no more than 10% of daily calorific intake or upper limit for an average of 2000kilocalories food intake not more than 200calories or 50g of free sugars daily/12.5 cubes . One can easily consume more than that 50g on average if he doesn’t watch his diet. Only 100ml can of coke has 10.5g of sugar. 500ml bottle more than 50g . sugars are not harmful in small amounts to the body, our bodies don’t need added sugars to function properly . Added sugars contribute additional calories and zero nutrients to food. https://www.heart.org/en/healthy-living/healthy-eating/eat-smart/sugar/sugar-101

If that's the case then don't even bother replying. Werey said it's deadly even if you don't take it regularly. I don't mean to digress but according to your statement even if you take it once in a year it's still deadly lol. I'd advise you work on your thinking before typing 3 Likes 1 Share

Carbohydrate are sugars, yes, sugar is sugar, but not all sugars are sugars. Pardon the pun codemaniacs There are different types of carbohydrates; which are classified based on their complexity (the number of sugar chains). In line with the context of the thread, we consume three types of carbohydrate: 1. Starch: [/b]This is what we get from rice, beans, millet, corns, etc. 2. [b]Cellulose: [/b]This is what we get from eating green leaves. 3. [b]glycogen: This type of carbohydrate is found in your chicken, beef, pig, etc. If you eat any of the above, you'd certainly put on weight, but, they won't harm you like the other type of sugar I am about to mention. ***Note: Eating Rice, Pasta, or Indomie, is not different from drinking coke. More on that later Now, you see the three I mentioned above, starch, cellulose, and glycogen? They are called Complex sugars. The body takes about 20 minutes to 2 hours to break them down and absorb them. What about fruit juice and coke? There exist another type of Carbohydrate that we get from coke, Pepsi, sweets, etc. This is the SUGAR causing the commotion now. This particular type of carbohydrate is called gotten from sugar cane. It is called Sucrose. Sucrose is a SIMPLE SUGAR. Now, we have two types of sugars, 1. Simple sugars: Simple sugars are easy to digest and absorb. Examples, sucrose as seen in sugar cane, fructose as seen in honey, maltose, as seen in milk, glucose as you get from sugar cane, honey, milk, energy drink, alcohol, Rice, spaghetti, Indomie, Pasta some wine, and even fruits. All o them listed in this category raise your blood sugar to extreme levels and quickly. They are harmful.. Mango juice, orange juice, watermelon juice, pawpaw juice, and all other fruit juices will kill you just like sugar cubes will. @IzzyArts The key word to watch out for is juice. So, on the contrary, Mango fruit, Pawpaw fruit, Orange fruit, will not kill you as fast. I also should mention fatty acid or fat from chicken and meat are deadly too.(GLYCOGEN carbohydrate ) 2. Complex Sugars : They are difficult to digest. Examples, Yam, Cassava, pounded yam, fufu, boiled corn, in general starch, then vegetables (Cellulose Carbohydrate).. Eat as much as you like, as long as you do not have any genetic predisposition to diabetes, then you are safe… Why? Imagine I mixed 1 bag of rice with a bag of beans, then say you should handpick the rice from the beans. It is a difficult task, right? That's how the digestive system suffers when you eat complex sugars… Inorder words, it takes longer for the sugar in this category to enter the blood. ***note: if you fry yam, potatoes, or others mentioned above, then, you will get diabetes. So, In a sense, you are right to say all sugar is sugar, because, sucrose, fructose, glucose, galactose, maltose, lactose, and other carbohydrate polymers are all called SUGARS. But are all sugars harmful? YES and NO. Yes because, all sugars are converted to glucose. NO, because, some sugars take longer to digest than others. Now, there is one more form of carbohydrate I should mention, That is fibre.. subscribe to know more! cc: clockwisereport, Harrynight, Acidosis, GeneralPula , OceanRed, @ judedwriter, as you grow older, it'll be better to minimize sweat fruits because sugar... @Usefulsense: vegetagles contain a type of sugar called cellulose. The body cannot digest them. They are safe but, may not provide much energy. blaquebelle, LeyeWrites, : Yes, malt can give you diabetes, just like coke. The body can break it down easily.. Normal sugars should be unprocessed carbohydrates. caprini1; sugar is too watery? e go shock you! even diet coke is dangerous! 3 Likes 1 Share |
