Pl:9:this was all information that was given to me. If need i would need to look it up online.
Experiment 9: Sugar
Sugar is a great energy source, but our bodies are not made to
consume it. Eating sugar on a regular basis is very destructive to
our bodies and eventually after years of forcing our bodies to
break the sugar down we become insulant resistant which then
leads to diabetes. The recommendation is that we take in no
more than 4 teaspoonfulls per day (about 20 grams). A single
can of soda contains much more than that.
