Re: All carbohydrates are sugar

[Guest guest]

Good point that carbs do turn to sugar.

I lost so much weight on the candida diet that I had to eat some carbs.

I gave up fruit and added sugars.I gave up breads. I ate rice pasta, brown rice and I still ate baked potatoes with no sour cream. I used fruit sweetened catsup, so that had some sugar.

But I found that cutting out the added sugars, sodas, pastries, etc. made enough of a difference to me to feel better. Cutting out some is better than not cutting it out at all in a lot of situations. They have done studies and basically most Americans eat too much sugar. There is sugar and corn syrup added to just about every processed food. I still think that trying to lower your sugar consumption is a healthy thing to do.
