Fructose and Succrose, Dex.

Both make up table sugar.

True enough. Nevertheless, all these damn sugar products in food products is why children are so hyperactive these day. Take a look at the ingredients in processed foods in the grocery stores.

Partially hydrogenated fats.

Me next book to read...





So violent a change in a culture’s eating habits is surely the sign of
a national eating disorder. Certainly it would never have happened in a
culture in possession of deeply rooted traditions surrounding food and
eating. But then, such a culture would not feel the need for its most august
legislative body to ever deliberate the nation’s “dietary goals”—or,
for that matter, to wage political battle every few years over the precise
design of an official government graphic called the “food pyramid.” A
country with a stable culture of food would not shell out millions for
the quackery (or common sense) of a new diet book every January. It
would not be susceptible to the pendulum swings of food scares or
fads, to the apotheosis every few years of one newly discovered nutri-
ent and the demonization of another. It would not be apt to confuse
protein bars or food supplements with meals or breakfast cereals with
medicines. It probably would not eat a fifth of its meals in cars or feed
fully a third of its children at a fast-food outlet every day. And it surely
would not be nearly so fat.

yup. Not to mention the dyes in the food. Some beleive hyperactivity is related to allergic reactions to those additives.



A good alternative to table sugar is to use Agave Nectar (RAW), which is also a good replacement for Honey, and is low glycemic.

Imago said:

True. However, if some people are allegic to bees, honey may not be a good alternative.

heybaby said:

I haven't ingested any foods with corn syrup for years (maybe 10+?)....I think if I tried anything that had it I'd probably fall out with sugar shock

High Fructose Corn syrup = Fat Ass
