” Because sugar depresses immune function, it increases risks of any
type of infection, including oral infections which can spread to the brain, reduces the body's
ability to neutralize and dispose of environmental toxins, and increase cancer.
Cancer cells feed on sugar. The more sugar you give them, the better they grow. ”
" Sugar comes in a variety of forms. Sucrose, commonly known as white table sugar,
is the most common. Others include brown sugar, honey, corn syrup, maple syrup,
sucanat( unrefined dehydrated sugarcane juice), molasses, date sugar, fruit juice
concentrate, barley malt, agave nectar, and brown rice syrup. In addition to these
sugars, you may find others included on ingredient labels such as dextrin, dextrose,
fructose, high fructose corn syrup, glucose, and maltodextrin. So-called 'natural'
sugars such as fruit juice concentrate or agave nectar are no better than refined
sucrose. The end results are the same. Whether you eat table sugar, honey, or
molasses makes little difference. Sugar by any other name is still sugar."
