Nothing new here but all fear-porn all-the-time says RUN FOR YOUR LIVES ANYWAY!!!
People with diabetes can’t process sugar. That suggests that not having sugar is bad for a person who can process it.
I never get all the sugar I want.
Gonna be studying covid for decades
sucrose, fructose, lactose, maltose, galactose...
Some worse, some better...
My own personal take is that obesity itself leads to diabetes regardless of sugar consumption.
The two siblings I have with diagnosed diabetes are both obese and both more excess carb eaters and excess portion eaters - and always have been - more than excess sugar consumers.
I have neither diabetes nor obesity and have not been shy of consuming sweets. I even had a many long years (before not now) of daily large sweet carbonated beverage consumption. But during that time had neither obesity nor diabetes.
Yes, my analysis is merely anecdotal.
My favorite senior doesn’t have diabetes but her motto is “Whatever you got, sugar will make it worse.”
I’m not a fanatic about it but she says someday I could be. :(
No need to read an entire book, just search “sugar” at youtube and you’ll get an earful!
Our bodies weren’t designed to thrive on the modern diet that’s loaded with sugar and carbs.
Just eat what is presented to you by the marketing people at the major food producers. Choose it by the pretty and convenient packaging at the supermarket. You’ll be fine.
Don’t bother to read the ingredients. You won’t know what most of that stuff is anyway. It’s just in there to make it taste better and stay fresh. It won’t hurt you, or your kids. < /s >
If you do read the boring ingredient lists you will notice that almost everything that comes in a package has some form of added sugar, often high fructose corn syrup.
Ever wonder Why?
“But even if you don’t eat donuts, candy, cakes or cookies regularly, having too many simple carbs like bread, pasta, rice, cereal or even certain fruits and juices may be silently driving up your blood sugar.
People often forget — or don’t realize — that sugar is in ketchup, salad dressings and lattes, as well as in juice, yogurt, cereal and protein bars.
I’m all about preventative care, especially when it comes to an insidious disease like diabetes”
Good stuff. Thanks for posting.
Sugar is the devil.
My lovely wife is the sugar police.
I’ve considered defunding her
Huh. When I had the ChinaVirus, I ate more sugar than usual - drinking a bunch of hot tea, loaded with sugar and/or honey.
I was fine, sore/tired for two days and that was about it.
i.e. don’t be fat.
I am a little bit skeptical that Covid spike proteins are specifically hunting down insulin producing cells in your pancreas.
Sounds a little too convenient for the panic narrative.
Sugar is believed by many to be the worst thing for your overall body, not just your immune system. Some even extend that to all carbs, which convert to sugar in the body.

My daughter found a gallon of milk recently that had an exp. date of 2023. Didn’t say if she looked at any of the others. Most likely a misprint, right?
I’m surprised they don’t put sugar in salt as they pour it in everything else...
"SARS-CoV-2 virus can make blood sugar control worse in the short term and can potentially throw people with diabetes into a very dangerous blood sugar state, studies show.
It does this by binding itself to the receptors found on the beta cells of the pancreas, which produce insulin."
