Already got it here, but I just saw my doctor yesterday and I've lost 8 pounds since my last visit. ohmy.gif

I really don't have sweets, thought I do drink diet soft-drinks, but there was also something I saw on 60 minutes, or one of those shows about cola and how it increases the chances of getting diabetes, as it's a giant rush of sugar, and your pancreas (Insulin-making organ) wears out over time. blink.gif

Anyway.. ermm.. Well, if you're sitting there eating a bag of sugar, you've obviously got problems. ph34r.gif

I like sweet stuff, but I try to avoid too much of it. So cola increases chances for diabetes... hmm, but I still love Pepsi. tongue.gif
I don't know how much sugar is considered normal. If you are unsure, then try to lower your sugar intake. Yeah, that might be hard to do. tongue.gif

Most normal sugar intake is based on your age, weight/height and daily activities. If you are truely worried about the amount of sugar intake. Take the other factors into consideration. Also, may want to ask your family doctor.

You can usually eat as much sugar as you want as long as it's not refined. The problem is nobody wants to eat anything but refined sugars tongue.gif Just try to get rid of refined sugar from your diet for just one week (anything that has been made by man and not from the ground). And just replace it with natural sugars. If you actually do this right. .. having refined sugars will actually discust you after you try it again and you will drastically eat less. The sugar may even make you sick since you let your body get cleansed. and start to put more bad stuff in it.

In our nutrition sugar is about 35%. Almost everything what we eat there is a sugar. In fruts and vegetables, in bread and corns, in milk and milksproducts etc.. The sugar is necessary in our nutrition, and it isn't so mush in relation with diabetes than obesitas.

I'm not sure if everyone understands what a sugar is. Sugar's are carbohydrates; carbohydrates are sugars. There is no difference between the two....however "sugar" usually referes to the broken down monosaccharaide glucose. As already stated, this is the "refined sugar". Basically, it has been broken down (a process your body usually does for you) so it can go directly to your blood - terrible for your body (and very addicting).

Also, remember that cellulose is also a sugar. So, you could go out and eat the trunk of a tree and be consuming mostly sugar, but it would most certainly not taste sweet (nor would your body be capable to break the cellulose into gluscose with boiling it before consuming - every wonder why celery gets soft when you cook it?)

Hey, if you can keep yourself running from dusk to dawn, you'll be in good shape wink.gif . Honestly, I don't pay any attention to what I take in, even though it would be a pretty good idea to start. Especially with the recent coming of Christmas...hehe...Chocolate and candy canes galore! I know that one day I will pay, but in the meantime, I think I'd just like to enjoy my junk food for what it is! WHERE'S MY KRISPY KREME?!

Let's just say if you drink a can of Coke, you have overdone your sugar level for the day. If you eat a burger and a salad at Macca's (Mickey Dee's for you Americans biggrin.gif) will give you enough sugar for the whole day (and a lot of fat). Basically anything that is sweet and nice tastes has way to much sugar. The actual amount is 6 tablespoons or 28-35 grams, this is the MAXIMUM amount, there is no such thing as an "average:.

Although it depends on the many factors like your life style your metabolism.
I think it shud be between 13 to 17 pounds, but I'm not too sure about that. I think it's batter to ask your doctor.It also dipends on your heredity.

Yes, my dear Lunaray, you are indeed asking for diabetes by frequently consuming "soft" drinks, much less on a daily basis. Most of the sugars you are consuming in pop and other trash "foods" are actually from "high fructose corn syrup" as opposed to the cane sugar your mum and dad grew up with - and did NOT get diabetes from. Nor did they experience the epidemic rates of cancer and heart disease youth suffer from today, even though they liberally smoked tobacco and drank alcoholic beverages. Studies show that pasteurized milk also causes diabetes. If you must drink cow's milk, get the raw, unadulterated stuff from your natural market. Avoid white flour, MSG, and genetically modified franken-foods infesting your grocery store and favorite fast-food resturant. The combination of these chemicals amounts to toxic overload in the body. Something has to give, and it's often your blood sugar. Stop buying packaged garbage (non-food) and prepare your own meals from organic, whole-food ingredients. And if you can't do that, buy some prepared organic meals from your grocers' freezer. If you want a carbonated, sweet drink, you're much better off drinking a good, non-fluoridated beer or wine that contains natural sugars in a fermented, highly digestible form. Beer, wine, and other fermented beverages are how man has traditionally enjoyed sugars for generation upon healthy generation. If you suffer from a sweet tooth, it may because you're not taking in enough fermented drink.

For the first time in modern history, science predicts a decline of life expectancy in the youngest generation. Youth of today: YOU ARE UNDER CHEMICAL ATTACK! Lose that taste for high fructose corn syrup, before it buries you.
