syrup could be viewed as “a right” within a free enterprise society. But at what cost? Are we all merely collateral damage? Much too long to adequately explain here, the cover article


of Mother Jones, December, 2012, “Sweet Little Lies, the 40-Year Campaign To Cover Up Evidence That SUGAR KILLS”, will shatter any trust or faith you might have had in the “sugar industry.” Lob- bying, back room politicking, misleading research and the buying of influential public figures sounds like something out of a horror movie. One of the most horrifying happenings was the buying of Dr. Frederick Stare, founder and chairman of the department of nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health. “The International Sugar Research Foundation credited the sugar industry with funding 30 papers in Dr. Stare’s department from 1952 to 1956 alone. In 1960, Dr. Stare’s department broke ground on a new $5 million building funded largely by private donations, including a $1 million gift from General Foods, makers of Kool-Aid and Tang. By the early 1970s, Stare ranked among the sugar industry’s reliable advocates, testifying in congress about the wholesomeness of sugar even as his department kept raking in funding from sugar producers and food and beverage giants such as Carnation, Coca-Cola, Gerber, Kellogg, and Oscar Mayer.” In the Health Now Wealth Forever article entitled: “The True Cause of Obesity, Heart Disease, and other Disease of Western Society – The Toxicity of Sugar,” the author suggested, “The solution to our nationwide obesity epidemic is not the USDA recommended low-fat, high-carb diet. That diet actually makes all of these dis- eases worse. What needs to happen is a dramatic shift in our diets. Our diets need more fat and protein, less sugar and carbohydrates. When we start to change our minds about sugar as a nation, we can start to turn our universal weight gain around.”


Sugar and Disease


A growing body of research suggests there’s a powerful con- nection between your diet and your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, via similar pathways that cause type 2 diabetes. According to some experts, including Dr. Ron Rosedale, Alzheimer’s and other brain disorders may in large part be caused by the constant burn- ing of glucose for fuel by your brain. But contrary to popular belief, your brain does not require glucose, and actually functions bet- ter burning alternative fuels, especially ketones, which your body makes in response to digesting healthy fats.
