Food manufacturers understand the power of the taste of sugar, and use it in developing a product for mass production.

Products

The sugar flavoring is usually hidden in food products. Words like dextrose, cellulose, high fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, maltose, glucose, fructose, ethyl maltol, mannitol, sucrose, and sorbitol are used on the package.

Artificial sweeteners produce a sugar flavor. Sugar and the taste of sweetness stimulate the brain by activating beta endorphin receptor sites.

Deficits

Sugar sets up nutritional deficits. It has the ability to drain the body of vitamins and minerals. The body is not capable of utilizing this refined starch, unless the depleted proteins, vitamins and minerals are present.

Sugar taken on a daily basis produces a continuously over-acid condition, and more minerals are required from the body in an attempt to rectify this. In order to protect our physiology, calcium is taken from the places that depend on this nutrient. That is the primary reason that tooth decay and osteoporosis appear.

A general weakening to occurs. Excess sugar affects every organ. Since it is stored in the liver in the form of glucose (glycogen), the liver’s capacity is limited. When the liver is filled to its maximum capacity, the excess takes the form of fatty acids. These are stored in the most inactive areas: the belly, the buttocks, the breasts, and the thighs.

When these places are filled, fatty acids now find their way to your organs. The heart and kidneys are examples. These organs will not be able to funcion at full capacity, and the body will slow down. Now, all the systems in the body are affected by this reduced ability.

What is Sugar

Sugar is the basic element found in starchy food. Sugar cane contains 14% trace elements, minerals, and vitamins, plus chlorophyll. The sugar we purchase in the store for our consumption is made in a way that is so unappetizing.

Sugar is heated up in chalk-milk, so that calcium and protein are extracted. All the vitamin content is destroyed. In the second phase the sugar in mixed with acid chalk, carbonic gas, sulphur dioxide, and natrium bicarbonate.

Now, the mixture is cooked and cooled off several times. Then it is crystallized and a centrifugalize process is used. It is further treated with strontium hydroxide. It is not finished until it is passed over chalk carbon acid to clean it.

All dark coloring is removed by adding sulphuric acid, and then it filtered. The product’s chemical composition is C12 H22 011, which is now labeled “pure cane” sugar.

The Term Pure

Sugar has an atomic density of 99.4 to 99.5%. This density is usually seen in the category of poison. Sugar irritates the mucous membranes, tissues, glands, blood vessels and intestinal tract. Sugar also paralyzes the intestinal peristaltic functions. Besides all this it destroys brain cells and elevates the temperature of the body.

Using the term pure is like saying we have a lot of pure heroin.

Our Treat

This is our treat, and one that we give to people we love. Our children are bribed and shown love with sugary rewards. Our children will sow the bitter aftermath from our ability to produce a sweet poison.

The scourge of the 21^st century is the sedentary lifestyle. Lack of activity is not well tolerated by the body. To plan fitness into your day is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. 

In an issue of the British Journal of Sports Medicine, specialists argue that prolonged periods of sitting are truly detrimental. In addition, we should focus on the harms caused by daily inactivity rather than on the lack of regular exercise alone.

The term “sedentary behavior” has come to mean “taking no exercise” according to doctors from the Karolinska Institute and the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences in Stockholm, Sweden.

The authors explain that the health of people who already do too little exercise will suffer even more if combined with extended bouts of sitting.                                                                                                                                      
Neutralize The Effects

Good abs are not what is going to be as important as energizing for lifelong health. Restoring healthy function is paramount to stimulating your immune system.

Recent Studies

Recent research indicates that prolonged periods of sitting and lack of whole body muscular movement are strongly linked to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and cognitive decline.

An Australian study suggested that for every additional hour a woman sits in front of the TV, her risk of metabolic syndrome which is a precursor to diabetes and cardiovascular disease, increases by 26 percent. This is irrespective of how much moderate exercise she does.

Fight Back

Reap the benefits of boosting your non-exercise activities. Insufficient movement is the culprit, not a lack of hard core exercising. Before inertia gets a hold there is way to obtain the benefits of a non-sedentary lifestyle.

All movement counts, and that is what is missing in most peoples day to day activities.

With just small changes you could be on your road to a healthier and more productive life. The point is everything in your day takes some type of planning from your daily meals, to your bill paying.

The quality is how good it is at achieving what you want. The value it what it will add to the quality of your life. Above all the choice is yours.

Weight loss in a pill sounds strange. It says you can fit everything you need to be slim in a capsule an inch by a half inch. This makes it sound as if the path to weight loss is a pill away.

Get Real

There was a study called the Scout trial which is important for the field of obesity. It seems that this study contradicts what has been a long-held presumption, which is weight-loss drugs are more than just cosmetic. These geniuses assumed that a little pill will actually reduce serious health problems in the obese.

The Scout study was the first to test this presumption, to see if a diet drug could reduce the risk of a heart attack. The finding was that sibutramine actually increased cardiovascular risks in some patients. Now they think this could raise questions about the safety of other diet drugs. I guess Pfen-fen didn’t do it for them.

Why would anyone medicate people on a presumption? Allopathic medicine has taught the public to fear sunlight, while promoting untested drugs.

Surprise

The European Medicines Agency (EMEA) has recommended that the appetite suppressant sibutramine should no longer be prescribed by doctors and that pharmacists should no longer dispense the drug.

The European reaction to the dangers of the drug Merida, which contains the ingrediant Sibutramine was to pull it from the market. Since the studies indicate that people with specific health problems had more heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular events that people taking a placebo.

The F.D.A. suggested a stronger warning label on the diet drug Merdia after a study showed the risks. This should not be surprising, since sibutramine seemed to significantly increased blood pressure and heart rate in numerous people. It seems no one keeled over on the spot, so why not let the drug pushers profit.

The F.D.A. recommended people on sibutramine should see their doctor to discuss an alternative, the same doctor that already prescribed this looser of a pill. In the mean time they can safely discontinue its use.

Obstacles

The real obstacle is sibutramine promotes weight loss with meager results, and no proven safety record. By having people think weight loss is one pill away, we are sticking to a failed method. Currently pills have no place in the management of obesity.

They help fuel a pill mentality and earn drug companies ill begotten fortunes. The diet pill industry should be falling to pieces. However, the trend is still the same supplying the public with a  magic bullet. While the drug companies should be shaking in their booties, they are reeling in a fortune. The only thing the magic bullet will do is shoot us in the heart.

The race is on to find the weight loss solution in a pill. A glimpse into the future will show, the lure for a pill to control weight will be a quest for the holy grail. The arsenal of weight loss medication will not change in the foreseeable future. One lawsuit after another has not brought change.
