Sugar is now more dangerous than gunpowder!
Refined carbohydrates – sugar and sugary soft drinks, sweets, biscuits, cakes, white flour, white rice – have been brought into being by recent human artifice: ‘This is not real food; it’s invented, fake food.’ None of it existed in the state of nature and not much of it in the more natural cultures of the past. Refined sugar, ‘the killer carbohydrate’, has been ‘important in our diet for less than a hundred years’, and ‘the biggest dietary change in fifty million years’ has been ‘the increase from four to 175 pounds of sugar per person per year’.
