Sugar causes blood glucose levels to spike. It can also lead to insulin resistance which could lead to diabetes.

I guess eating candy or sweets occasionally is okay, but most people I know who eat sugar are pretty addictive. They drink 6 or 8 cans of soda and daily eat candy.

I am sorry to say but this is as bad as smoking in terms of the long-term consequences on health.

The diet I am describing is pretty much what a diabetic would have to eat. So eating a lot of sugar could cause diabetes and then these foods would be the required ones.

It's a boring diet but I think good. I think I will stick with it. If I go a little off on the holidays it isn't really going to have that bad an effect.
