If you're like me, what you're about to read will shock and horrify you.
Like many of you, I'm very saddened by the lives stolen through drug addiction. Not only the lives of addicts themselves, but of their friends and families as well. Drug addiction affects everyone.
Well imagine my surprise when I discovered that refined sugar is very similar to heroin... one of the most addictive and deadly narcotics out there.
Yes, you read that right. Sugar and heroin have more in common than not.
But there's one key area where sugar and heroine are different...
...sugar is legal.
And it's consumed to the tune of 160 pounds per year per adult. So, I
think it's very important that you know the facts. You need to know
just how dangerous refined sugar really is to your body. Don't worry,
I'll keep the scientific mumbo jumbo to a minimum because I want you to
be sure
to "get" what I'm telling you.
You'll never look at refined sugar the same way again...

Hi Nancy,
You certainly have given Art and I "food" for thought regarding sugar. I thought we were doing so well staying away from cookies and the like. You helped me to take a closer look at EVERYTHING we eat. There are so many hidden sugars. For example, everyone at work was so excited that now the kitchen is offering yogurt, granola and ground flax seed as an option for morning breakfast, along with the muffins, breads, jams and bagels. We all thought this was a much healthier snack. I took my first portion of yogurt, flax seed and really looked at the granola.....oops looked loaded with sugar.. to my surprise, the yogurt has 24 gr. of sugar per 1/2 c. Ouch! I never would have thought to look before. thanks. Won't be touching that again!
