Zero Sugar Foods Have TONS of Sugar: WHAT???

Today, I’m going to tell you the truth about sugar and the effects of sugar. Doctors and large agencies like the Sugar Association have recently denied that sugar consumption could be dangerous for your health or that it could have any implications for your cardiovascular system. A similar tactic has been used by tobacco companies before they admitted that cigarettes were deadly. The average person consumes 23 teaspoons of sugar daily, but could they also be consuming hidden sugars? Hidden sugars are found in products that claim to contain zero sugars. Many ultra-processed foods, such as chips, Cheez-Its, and Goldfish, contain no sugar but are full of starches. Starches have a higher glycemic index than sugar, so they can cause a more significant blood sugar spike. Heavily processed starches are not like the starch you’d find in a potato or rice. Starches like maltodextrin, modified food starch, or modified corn starch can harm your blood sugar and health. If you include starch in a person’s daily sugar consumption, the average person consumes around 75 teaspoons of sugar each day! High-sugar diets cause you to deplete your nutrient stores until they are gone. Sugar also causes oxidative damage without the antioxidants to protect you, ultimately leading to chronic conditions, including diabetes, Alzheimer’s, inflammation, and skin problems. Processed foods are often fortified because they are so devoid of nutrients. Synthetic vitamins sprayed onto processed foods are not an alternative to whole foods! Stop eating sugar and eliminate starches from your diet. This can reverse the cycle of disease, lower blood sugar, and reverse a fatty liver. Your body will also be able to burn its own fat through ketosis. Ketones are a much better fuel for the heart than glucose.
