that sounds silly
Actually not
The thing is that when sugar gets digested the molecules of glycosis gets broken apart, when they get combined with some acid I forgot the name they become saturated grase which's very very bad
while normal graze is digested and then can be used to build hormones or be stocked as graze (which's bad)
so glycosis itself is energy but when you consume too much you body for storage compacts it in the form of saturated graze
this causes hearth diseases, cancer and inflamations for example
so yeah, sugar's cancer food
well cancer is caused by disruption of a cell's division
there's a certain sequence, in which if skipped, the cell will endlessly divide
Let's be less specific, cancer is caused by a bad mutation, an error in cell division, such errors can be caused by a lot of stuff
yes
it can be completely natural
or caused by a disruption of chemicals or radiation
etc
Including sugar
you can't really avoid sugar so you're basically saying most foods are cancer food
Cancer's not like that
even oxygen causes cancer
staying still causes cancer
it's a really complex thing
the definition of cancer is far too broad and you do have cancer, not on the way you imagine (like, been forced to stay on a hospital bed for the rest of your shrinking life)
but cancer is not the problem of sugar
it's getting fatter, having health diseases and the fact that it's an inflamatory
this is my point
Then I am sorry but you where not clear because " you're basically saying most foods are cancer food" I said this statement is true
yes
Sugar isn't cancer food, although it is definitly a lot less healthy than lipids and protiens and normal carbohydrates (not fructose or sucrose)
Well most cancers feed of sugar. That doesnt mean sugar causes cancer though, however table sugar is refined and highly inflammatory so probably does. Sugar from good sources like fruits, honey, and maple syrup probably is not carcinogenic
you can find a variety of sugars in different foods
Ya but my point was sugar is cancer if its from a bad source.
And ofcourse moderation
Is important
i agree with moderation
but the term "bad source" is somewhat misleading
because it's about the sugar itself and how your body breaks it down
I was at a mind-body-soul expo (my wife likes to buy cool rocks at these, I'm no hippie) and there was a presentation going on for alkaline water and how it *cures cancer* and *buy an alkalizing water machine for $3000* to make your body alkaline, cure cancer and be healthy. I couldn't believe they actually made the claim.
fructose isn't a bad sugar, but excessive consumption will cause medical issues
It makes me so mad to think of all those poor people with cancer hoping for any sort of miracle that can help them, willing to shell out thousands of dollars they don't have to snake oil salesmen.
fun fact glucose is slightly flammable
on the fire diamond it has a 1
