Actually boring_dad, technically the body needs glucose to survive. Which the body can produce from many different sources - amazingly enough, one of which is *protein*! But the fact is that sugar is sugar no matter where it comes from. Some sources are "healthier" for you than others in that it contains additional nutrients that are beneficial to your body - such as unrefined bee's honey. And brown sugar contains trace amounts of calcium, potassium, iron and magnesium. But those minerals are only present in trace amounts and they do not offset the overall damaging effects of refined sugar, and you're 100% better off getting them from other sources. If you MUST use *some* kind of sugar, use honey. But don't kid yourself that it's much better for us hormonally (and I mean insulin-wise) because it is made of 55 per cent fructose (fruit sugar), so eating honey is little more beneficial for our bodies than eating granulated sugar....

@Roobert --> I tried ha. I also agree with you on the brown sugar. At the end of the day, it's still bad for you. I typically like to focus on sugar sources like peaches / apples / other fruits etc etc.

I get it. I was just telling you what my nutritionist told me. The rules of nutrition are always changing, just wait and next month they'll tell you that fruits are bad for you. Lol.

Haha, yeah, nutrition advice seems to flip flop a lot sometimes. Wasn't there a time they were saying eggs were bad for everyone, or something along those lines? Now they say they're good. :)

@meadow mist and a_boring_dad --> I'm sure it obvious that everyone eventually has an agenda it seems like in the nutritional world. Not necessarily the nutritionist, but the location that he/she gets their information. It's actually harder it seems to find a person TRULY willing to dedicate there lives to actual human health and longevity as a whole vs just diabetes, or just heart disease etc etc. I've 100% convinced myself of PROCESSED sugar being an unhealthy thing for me. I'm still on the fence about animal products. I'm still going through a lot of the China Study and Dr Esselstyn's research and such which really does have some convincing points to it.

Exactly Tim! Keep it natural as much as possible! :) It's the effect of modern processing on the molecules themselves that has such an impact on their bio-availability once we consume them. Over the course of a couple of hundred years we're killing ourselves eating refined and processed stuff; and yet we survived for millions of years eating (basically) everything found in nature from meat to fruit, so maybe there's something to the whole "natural is good" thing...? :) Anyway, hope you all have a WONDERFUL day!!!

Sugar isn't inherently bad, some people can eat loads of it with no ill effects, others gain weight or develop insulin issues, or both, not to mention tooth decay. For someone trying to lose weight or correct insulin issues sugar is problematic, regardless of the source.

I have to agree with Tim on the processed/refined sugar, though. I just saw a post on this site the other day, stating they've now done studies showing refined sugar is more addictive than things like heroin or cocaine! I have to admit, I've been raised in an anti-refined sugar family, but looking around, I'm convinced refined/processed sugar (refined/processed=key here) can't be good for anyone, regardless of whether it's obvious in its effects or not.
