January 13th, 2012
Today many people might associate Sugar and Spice with the teen movie, many eating places with this common name or even the famous poem, Sugar and Spice… Everything Nice.
But for immediate clarification this is not about any of those!
Sugar and Spice has found their way into our daily eating habits with various combinations of foods and desserts.
Our sugar craving though, has surpassed the uses of our spices, resulting in the health delima that has presented itself today. On the other hand spices can lead to healthier lives by their use. So perhaps it seems only fitting too much Sugar being labeled Naughty and Spice being on the opposite side, to be considered Nice. So in the nut shell Sugar and Spice, Naughty and Nice needs to be better understood for a healthier diet!
SUGAR
Sugar in its defense is necessary for certian aspects of our diet. It is not only found naturally in many of our fruits, Sugar is a class of edible crystalline carbohydrates, mainly sucrose, lactose, and or fructose, this is characterized by its sweet flavor.
Sucrose in its refined form primarily comes from sugar cane and sugar beet. It and the other sugars are present in natural and refined forms in many foods, and the refined forms are also added to many food preparations. In foods, “sugars” refer to all monosaccharides and disaccharides present in food, but excludes polyols, while in its singular form,
“sugar” normally refers to sucrose. The other sugars are usually known by more specific names — glucose, fructose or fruit sugar, high fructose corn syrup.
Why all these types of sugars are mentioned is because of the level of sugar consumption is confusing, but all are thrown into the stats of the 156 pounds we now consume yearly. This due to the sugar kick we have found our selves on and the ingredient list for just about every thing we has had it added in some form or another.
Naughty (Sugar)
Sugar has been attached as one of the more naughty foods… having a great influence on health today. Though many, many studies have conversed back in forth regarding the influence of diabetes, it has led to to great influx in our obesity due to the carbohydrates that has added calories to our diets. I do not have to explain, that is a good enough reason to eat less sugar. But that not the end of sugar being naughty for our health, it certainly keeps the dentists in business.
