Sugar 'is toxic' say scientists

Sugar 'is toxic and must be regulated just like cigarettes', claim scientists
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/artic ... z1lFPI25B5 :rtft:

Sugar is a poison and its sale should be as tightly regulated as cigarettes and alcohol, scientists say.

They warn that sugary foods and drinks are responsible for illnesses including obesity, heart disease, cancer and liver problems. :clapper:

And they claim it contributes to 35million deaths a year worldwide and is so dangerous it should be controlled through taxation and legislation. :top:

- How bout we just stop making the stuff, we have farsafe er, healthful, natural alternatives readilly available, stevia, honey, coconut crystals, xylitol and others. :headscratch:

No worries mate, good to see you, had a good day ?
Anyway i was rather concerned with one reader comment that received quite a few THUMBS UP...!?!?

''Oh for goodness sake!!!!! Please, Scientists, stop trying to keep everyone alive for ever. The planet's already overpopulated and it's getting worse and worse every year. If people want to eat sugar and smoke endless cigarettes until their organs shut down then let them. People need to start dying FASTER...not slower.''
- WTF... :scary:

Well, I think government should stay out of everyone's business.
I don't think they have any right to tell me how I should eat.

This is just more big government bullshit.

Yeah a bit of that could be at play, BUT THE FACT remains that sugar is very detrimental to human health, so are we at such a low level of consciousness as to not care ? I think many are and this in turn fuels my belief in the 'conspiracy' the energetic suppression of humanity, i've experience an addiction to sugar and transferred from that to no sugar, whole organic foods and juices, so i am a personal living breathing testament that going the natural health way WORKS BIGTIME, and it does'nt matter what starting point you are at healthwise it's well worth doing. Most people in the world don't give a shit, truly about anything but these are the same people that want to cry, moan and complain and generally get off on how bad the world is, erm, have we not once ever thought about doing something to fix it ? Is that not a logical step if you love life so much that you would want to make it more livable for all ? I know i do, but hey i'm the mad guy who eats organic foods and drinks vegeteable juice on a daily basis instead of coca cola and macdonals. Life is wonderful and mysterious no doubt about it.

I'm a man. Most men lose their "sugar tooth" as they get older.
I don't crave sweets.
This would be a woman/child issue.

I still don't think anyone should be told how to eat by an authority figure.

I used to use flavored creamers every time.
I completely lost my sweet tooth and I always drink my coffee black now.
