76 ways sugar can ruin your health
At the Low Carb Grocery, we believe that absolutely
everyone can benefit from cutting back on sugar.
Low Carb and Sugar Free products are not just for
dieters - its about making smarter choices about the
foods we eat. What makes our store special of
course is that the vast majority of our products
contain no sugar at all, but you can still enjoy eating
things like cookies, chocolate, hot chocolate,
pastries, ... and 600+ other unique low carb/sugar-
free products in-stock.
A lifestyle of eating excess sugar can lead to many
problems. We came across this website backed by
lots of great research that really hit it home:
76 Ways Sugar Can Ruin Your Health.
Here are the top five:
- Sugar can suppress your immune system and
impair your defenses against infectious disease

body: causes chromium and copper deficiencies and
interferes with absorption of calcium and
magnesium

adrenaline, hyperactivity, anxiety, difficulty
concentrating, and crankiness in children.
- Sugar can produce a significant rise in total
cholesterol, triglycerides and bad cholesterol and a
decrease in good cholesterol.

function.
