Sugar is and has never been the problem. Processed sugar is. Sugars found in organic, natural, nutrient filled fruit are what our species was made to digest. They are what we need for lymphatic system, circulatory system, digestive all systems to function well. Our bodies are constantly polluted with toxins, and parasites live in almost all of us. Our bodies become dependent on the foods we eat even if they do not meet what our bodies need. It's a hard thing to accept but try intermittent fasting with healthy fruits and herbs. See how your body heals itself. If you look at our digestive systems they most closely resemble big surprise primates and primates eat mostly fruit. Our bodies healthy natural pH is slightly alkaline 7.4 in blood and lymph. Fruits create this environment in the body. They are absorbed quickly and have a lot of minerals and vitamins needed for the enzymes of our bodies to do their jobs. Sugar that is processed creates an acidic environment in the body and makes you crave more then you need. I suggest you check out Dr. Robert Morse if you wish to learn more about this.
