#3 Sugar Can Cause Diabetes
Is sugar the reason for having diabetes? If you are diagnosed of having diabetes, the doctor does not tell you to stop eating snickers and candy bars, the doctor's recommended diet is to have a proper diet which means to minimize your intake, not only intake of sugar but everything. Just as itchy throat is a symptom of having a cough; high blood sugar is not a cause of diabetes but a symptom. When your pancreas gets lazy to produce insulin to your body diabetes is developed. If a person has large intake of sugar, he or she probably have abnormal intake of everything. It is not eating sugar that is the main cause of diabetes but the large amount of your food eat.

As long as daily intake is not higher than 15-20%, a good diet is maintained. In fact, saturated fats particularly in coconut oil and butter are good for proper nerve signaling.

Because according to research, diet sodas may have an effect to your desire for something sweet, which we all know contains large amount of calories.
