SUGAR IS NOT OUR FRIEND!

HEALTH TIP: Sugar is *NOT* your friend. It may “feel like” your friend when it comforts you (due to the beta-endorphin rush in your brain), but sugar is actually your enemy. Truth be told, regular consumption of sugary foods is one of the worst things that you can do to your health. Modern scientific research has shown us, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that sugar in your food (in all its myriad of... forms) is taking a devastating toll on your health.

American children are consuming about TEN TIMES as much sugar as they were in 1900, especially in the form of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), which is the average American’s largest source of calories! Highly addictive HFCS contains fructose and glucose, but they are NOT bound together (as they are in table sugar) so your body doesn’t need to break it down. Therefore, the fructose is absorbed immediately, going straight to your liver, which turns it into FAT (VLDL and triglycerides).

Sugars are poison to the body, just as chemo is poison; both decreases the body's ability to fight cancer. How can healing occur when the body is caused to weaken; it cannot begin to heal when poisons are present. Cancer grows when fed sugars; yet in cancer centers throughout the U.S. cancer patients are fed sugars during treatments and advised to eat more sugars at home; in order to increase body weight. This practice is absurd and dangerous.

We must look closing at research and as we do we discover, cancer as it grows and takes over the body will eat whatever it needs to survive and overcome the body. A major source as cancer progresses is its consumption of glutamine from the body's muscle mass; this is the reason for many patients to appear thin, the muscle mass is being consumed. Sugar and carbs will not put back the muscle mass, it is a clear warning to caregivers the cancer is advancing. Glutamine should be taken in order to keep the muscles healthy while fight cancer and all processed sugars need be removed from the diet.

We must understand our bodies need some source of sugar, however, this type of sugar is a food source, a whole food the body recognizes. You may get this in your healthy organic diet, fruits, vegetables, honey, etc, all whole foods, all created by nature and recognized by the body as a whole food source and the sugars are processed as nutrients.

We can make a change in lives, but we must educate the public with truths. People will respond to the truths if they are willing to survive.

I also make available foods you absolutely need to use organic and other fruits and vegetables that can be used grown naturally. Some foods do not absorb non organic materials, others absorb it thoroughly therefore you MUST use organic. You can obtain the list on our website.

Continue opening doors and spreading hope.
