The Dangers
Of Sugar

Having seen the health of so many people improve dramatically when they stopped using sugar and hydrogenated fat, we cannot place too much emphasis on this suggestion.

Dr Boris Chaitow, founder of the High Rustenburg Hydro, tells us that . . .

`[Refined] sugar by its very nature and its function in the system, constitutes one of the most damaging of the so-called foods modern society imposes on itself. It is highly concentrated, taken out of its context, and above all inflicts on the poor pancreas a burden which is eventually responsible for two of society's serious physical stresses, namely diabetes and hypoglycemia.' (Dr. Boris Chaitow, My Healing Secrets, p.67).

Remember, refined white flour is converted into and enters the stomach as sugar - so avoid it as you would sugar.

Some years ago researchers carried out a series of studies that examined how sugar consumption weakens the ability of white blood cells to destroy bacteria (germs). The results of this study showed that if a person eats no sugar for 12 hours, each white blood cell could destroy an average of 14 bacteria. When 24 teaspoons of sugar were consumed (the amount in a medium piece of cheesecake or a milk shake), the white blood cells were so compromised that they could only destroy an average of one bacterium each. Study the following chart carefully and then, whenever you sneeze, or cough, or have a runny nose, think back on your recent sugar consumption.

Little wonder, therefore, that enlightened researchers are saying what they are saying about the dangers of refined white sugar - and of this denatured product's ability to compromise the immune system . . .

`White sugar is the curse of the civilized world.' (Dr. Michael Sharon, Complete Nutrition, p.29)
