I am going to be giving a "Healthy Eating/ Healthy Living" Seminar at a prestigious high-end gym to some of the members. As such, I am keeping it pretty basic. Anyone who reads my blog knows that I am seriously opposed to added sugars; from cancer, impaired immune health, degenerative diseases, inflammation, diabetes, obesity, poor brain function, accelerated aging, wrinkles (Glycation) to lung, joint and more serious mental disorders (schizophrenia, depression etc), refined, added sugar is a detriment to every facet of our health.
I will be doing a series specifically on the Dangers Of Sugar. For today, I thought I would leave some food for thought, by way of the MANY different hidden names of sugar. The agricultural industry is constantly coming up with new names to disguise sugar.

Wow, that's A LOT! And: great job!! I've also thought about making a post on the various faces of sugar (I have so many ideas for posts in my mind I just don't have the time for making them all, and especially the ones I REALLY want to make afford some research and elaboration, so more time, and gah), because it seems to lurk everywhere, and I am VERY doubtful about sugar as well, but I'd never have thought there were SO MANY kinds of added sugars! Thank you for providing this! I will make a link to your post in my next rant about sugar!
