Is sugar toxic?

Best sugar is in the food that God provides for us to eat in moderation, bananas, mangoes, oranges, sugar cane, tangerines, grapes, you name them. Man made food is killing us including sugar,and its addicting too. Watch out for foods heavy with refined sugars, like pastries and sugary cereals. These foods offer calories without many essential nutrients. High sugar foods and drinks may also cause your energy to soar briefly before it falls to lower levels. You may feel more drained and hungry, even if you ate breakfast. Sugar cause fermentation in the stomach. Milk and sugar combined is one of the worst combination. Use little sugar, milk or honey in moderation. God wants us to be healthy so let us stick to the diet He gave us in Genesis 1:29. see Nutrition  I love my lemonade with brown sugar but slowly cutting back, help me Jesus. Eat the fruits and get the sugar you need Beverley, in moderation and less of the  man-made sugars. God gives us all the nutrients we need from the food He provides for us. Sugar is not bad, it is the processed man-made sugar that is toxic and  is slowly killing us (Aspartame, Splenda).. , . Our body, brain need sugar for energy. When we eat fruits such as  banana, mango, oranges and sugar cane we get sugar (natural). Yet we should not overload ourselves with the natural food either moderation is the key.

Thought for the Day

Love Must Be Tested and Tried—Affection may be as clear as crystal and beauteous in its purity, yet it may be shallow because it has not been tested and tried. Make Christ first and last and best in everything. Constantly behold Him, and your love for Him will daily become deeper and stronger as it is submitted to the test of trial. And as your love for Him increases, your love for each other will grow deeper and stronger.” E.G.White Source: Adventist Home by Ellen G. White p....

These members of the cabbage family make an excellent stir fry and can be added to  a salad. Epidemiological studies found that consumption of this group of vegetables was associated with decreased risk for cancer. Cruciferous vegetables  contain a kind of phytochemical known as isothiocyanates, which stimulate our bodies to break down potential carcinogens (cancer causing agents).

Phytochemicals

Other common name(s): antioxidants, flavonoids, flavones, isoflavones, catechins, anthocyanidins, isothiocyanates, carotenoids, allyl sulfides, polyphenols. The term “phytochemicals” refers to a wide variety of compounds produced by plants. They are found in fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, and other plants. Scientists have identified thousands of phytochemicals, although only a small fraction have been studied closely. Some of the more commonly known phytochemicals include beta carotene, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), folic acid, and vitamin E. Some phytochemicals have either antioxidant or hormone-like actions. There is some evidence that a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains reduces the risk of certain types of cancer and other diseases.  Researchers are looking for specific compounds in these foods that may account for the beneficial effects in humans.

Do Not Judge Luke 6:37-42 37 “Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” 39 And He spoke a parable to them: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch? 40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher. 41 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye? 42 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the plank that isin your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother’s eye.” Luke...

A Tree Is Known by Its Fruit:  Luke 6:43-45  “For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.  For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.  A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” Luke...

Build on the Rock:   Luke 6:46-49  “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?  Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like:  He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock. But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.” Luke 6:46-49...
