Chauncy Morlan100 years ago, he was considered so obese that he toured in the circus as the ‘Fat Man” and people paid money to see him. Today, no one would give him a second look.
Imagine if, 100 years from now, people that we consider unusually obese – at 500 pounds or so, are considered normal?

Sugar is half glucose, half fructose.
100 calories of sugar is metabolized very differently than 100 calories of starch.
Calorically the same, metabolically very different.
Isocaloric, NOT isometabolic.
SUGAR IS NOT THE SAME AS STARCH

FRUCTOSE METABOLISM IS DIFFERENT
![Page 7: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
FRUCTOSE PROMOTES FATTY LIVER
66% of obese adults and 50% of obese children may have fatty liver.
This can lead to liver failure, liver cancer, or liver-related death.
![Page 8: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
FATTY LIVER DERANGES METABOLISM, LEADING TO METABOLIC SYNDROME
Metabolic Syndrome raises your risk of:
Heart Disease
Diabetes
Stroke
Cancer
![Page 9: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
It has the same effects on the brain as cocaine or heroin, although on a smaller scale.
SUGAR IS ADDICTIVE
![Page 10: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
REPEATED, INTERMITTENT BINGES

LEAD TO CHANGES IN DOPAMINE, ACETYLCHOLINE, AND OPIOIDS IN BRAIN
![Page 12: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
WITHDRAWAL – ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION
![Page 13: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
CRAVING DURING ABSTINENCE
![Page 14: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WE BINGE AGAIN, REINFORCING THE CYCLE
![Page 15: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SUGAR IS ADDICTIVE
• Study after study after study shows that sugar has the same effects on the brain (dopamine, acetylcholine, opioids) that opiate drugs do, albeit milder.
• Repeated, intermittent bingeing
• Withdrawal – anxiety, depression
• Craving during abstinence
• Leads to another binge
![Page 16: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SUGAR CRAVINGS MAY REALLY BE FAT CRAVINGS
• Food cravings and increased appetite are strong indicators of a micronutrient deficiency
• That’s why it is critical that you be WELL NOURISHED if you want to lose weight
• Multivitamin, bone broth every day, liver once a week, plenty of eggs, meats, quality saturated fat, leafy greens, cruciferous veggies, some fruit, some dairy….etc
• Our taste receptors for sweetness may have been designed to detect NUTRIENT DENSE FATS (this argument is long and complex)
• So when you are craving sweets, ask yourself, STEAK or SALMON?
![Page 17: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SUGAR CAUSES NUTRIENT DEFICIENCIES
• Sugar isn’t just EMPTY calories, it’s NEGATIVE nutrition!
• “To deal with the sugar onslaught, the body has to use available minerals, vitamins and enzymes at an alarming rate, finishing up being depleted of these vital substances.
• One molecule of sugar requires 56 molecules of magnesium to metabolize it.
• “Consumption of sugar is a major cause of the widespread magnesium deficiency in this country, leading to high blood pressure and neurological and immune problems.”
Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride

Obesity, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Cancer
SUGAR AND THE BIG DISEASES
![Page 19: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
SUGAR AND OBESITY
• Sugar decreases secretion of insulin and leptin, two hormones that tell our bodies we are full and should stop eating
• More sugar
• Less Leptin
• Less Insulin
• Eat more
• Gain weight
• Sugar causes obesity faster than other foods b/c it tricks the body’s metabolism
![Page 20: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SUGAR AND OBESITY
• The fructose in sugar is shunted directly to the liver for disposal to keep it away from the rest of the body.
• The liver detoxifies fructose by converting it to fat.
• Much of the fructose you eat will be converted to FAT!
![Page 21: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
SUGAR AND DIABETES
• High intake of sugar 2x as likely to have diabetes (Nurse’s Health Study)
• Drinking fruit punch each day doubles risk of diabetes
• Drinking one extra soda per day increased risk by 80%
• Sugar demand on pancreas to secrete huge amounts of insulin pancreas depleted/insulin resistance diabetes

SUGAR AND HEART DISEASE• Sugar raises triglycerides and LDL and decreases HDL -That blood profile
leads to heart disease
• Shifting 25% of dietary calories from glucose to fructose:
• Raises small dense LDL, the worst blood lipid, by 45%
• Increases triglycerides 100%
• Increases abdominal fat 4x faster than glucose alone
• Rats fed a diet of 60% fructose compared to rats fed conventional chow, after 5 weeks:
• 15% higher blood pressure
• 198% higher triglycerides
• 90% cholesterol
• Women fed 25% of calories from fructose for 10 weeks
• 140% increase in triglycerides

SUGAR AND CANCER• Dr. Block, medical director for Block Center for Integrative
Cancer and asst. prof at UIC College of Medicine:
• “A major ingredient in the recipe for getting cancer is a diet high in refined sugar and high in unhealthy fats.”
• “We know that tumors are glucose (sugar) guzzlers. If you strangulate the supply of sugar to a tumor, it may actually trigger a form of biological suicide among the malignant cells.”
• Cancers related to sugar: breast, gallbladder, prostate, colon, uterine, pancreatic

SUGAR CONSUMPTION RISING!
• Sugar is now 20-25% of average person’s daily food intake
• We eat 124 grams of sugar per day
• That’s 31 teaspoons
• That’s more than 2/3 cup
• That’s more than 500 calories per day
• And many of us eat FAR more!
![Page 27: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

SUGAR SHOCK SURVEY
![Page 42: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
SUMMARY• Sugar is metabolized by the liver
• Fatty Liver Disease
• Metabolic Syndrome
• Addiction
• Obesity
• Diabetes
• Heart Disease
• Cancer
![Page 43: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
ARE SUGAR SUBSTITUTES OKAY?
• Saccharine, Aspartame, and Splenda have been linked to cancer
• Your body can “read” sugar substitutes as sugar and still spike your blood sugar and insulin
• Agave nectar is higher in fructose than sugar, so is WORSE than sugar
• Natural sugars like raw and turbinado may have less processing, so you can do that if you want to spend the extra money, but the effect on your blood sugar will be the same
![Page 44: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
HOW MUCH SUGAR IS OKAY?• Remember, you can have:
• 15 g sugar per day - that is 3.5 teaspoons per day
• Honey is your best choice
• Raw, local, unfiltered honey has some beneficial properties and may help with seasonal allergies
• Honey contains over a hundred different compounds ,and has a small amount of minerals, amino acids, and vitamins
• 100% pure maple syrup is fine in small amounts
• Can use small amounts of real sugar
• Stevia in the raw is your best choice for a no-calorie sugar substitute
![Page 45: Not So Sweet after all](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568165b1550346895dd8a2d1/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
TO SATISFY A SWEET TOOTH• First try some FAT!!!! Steak or Salmon? Cream or Cheese?
• Level 1 – Less sweet
• Smoothie, dark chocolate, dip bacon or sausage in maple syrup, berries w/ coconut milk or heavy cream, tea with honey and coconut oil, coffee with heavy cream, spoonful of honey, cheese, berries with whipped cream
• Level 2 – More sweet
• Dried fruit, Apple Crisp, Jello Cream, Crustless Cheesecake, saute apples in butter with a little honey
