    Sugar is not bad. Abuse of sugar is bad. Sugar is absolutely fine, as long as one doesn’t exceed. Problem is that in American-inspired diets sugar is everywhere at gigantic doses

      Do basic groceries abuse sugar? And I’m not talking about the “organic” ones

        Depends on what you mean by “basic groceries.” Produce and generally anything that is not processed or prepackaged is ok, but most anything ready to eat, including any baked goods is likely to be pretty high in sugar.

        And just FYI, since glucose, fructose, and sucrose are all naturally occurring, they (and HFCS) are considered organic legally

      Sugar does nothing good and its 100% konessential for the human body. You dont need to eat a single carb.

      And that includes fiber, which is also a carb.

        Good luck with your digestion if you don’t eat fibers… Your gut flora must live a miserable life :(
