Default here is another EXCELLENT reason to avoid sugar/carbs...

...sugar feeds cancer cells.

Cancer Loves Sugar



my brother in law was just diagnosed with cancer, so I jumped online and found this, plus a ton of other information. one of the articles said that giving a glucose drip to a cancer patient is akin to pouring fuel on a fire, and they're developing low-carb, no-sugar drips for cancer patients.

also, sugar depresses the immune system for HOURS after eating it. you need your immune system to work, especially at this time of year.

that's something to think about next time you're having a craving!
