Comments on: 3 Rock-Solid Reason You Need to Get as Far Away From Refined Sugar as Possible http://www.healthlady.com/weight-loss/3-rock-solid-reason-you-need-to-get-as-far-away-from-refined-sugar-as-possible/ Holistic Health Solutions For Women Over 40 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:09:07 +0000 hourly 1 By: Sue http://www.healthlady.com/weight-loss/3-rock-solid-reason-you-need-to-get-as-far-away-from-refined-sugar-as-possible/comment-page-1/#comment-3362 Sue Mon, 28 Jun 2010 20:21:45 +0000 http://www.healthlady.com/?p=9245#comment-3362 What about the idea that since planting in 2009, 100% of the sugar beet crop in the United States is GMO? Since only those commercial sugars specifically labeled as "cane sugar" are 100% cane based, anything else also would be fit to give reason #4 - GMO contamination!!! Since brown sugar, powdered sugar, cake sugar and most others available commercially are all based on refined white sugar, many times without the "cane sugar" label, it is harder than most imagine to get off - and most people NEED the help offered here! Beyond the different forms it takes, sugar also has a host of "names" under which it is incorporated into most processed foods. Add this to the detrimental effects of corn-based sweeteners, cancer-causing (hmm) saccharin, sucralose, aspertame and neotame, and you've got SOME idea of how poisoned we are as a nation and as a global population, just through ONE avenue... There most definitely are REASONS why 17th and 18th century Europeans called refined sugar the "White Death." We have forgotten our past, and now fill the beds in local hospitals and the pockets of the pharmaceutical companies for the privilege. PLEASE listen to this lady!!!
