Sugar and Refined Carbohydrates - make us infertile?

January 24, 2008 // No Comments »

OK - the headline may be a bit extreme but in reading the article below i realised that the truth about sucrose and refined carbohydrate being nutritionally empty is a little short of the mark. It seems that everywhere i turn there are growing bodies of opinion that sucrose or refined carbohydrates are actively damaging our health. One of the areas i have specialised in for 8 years is the nutritional relationship between being able to conceive and being infertile.

Xylitol and Insulin Resistance, Diabetes Hypertension and Hormonal Imbalances

Consuming sugar and other refined carbohydrates results in the rapid release of glucose, or blood sugar. In response, the pancreas secretes insulin to usher glucose into the cells, where it is burned for energy. Excess glucose stresses the system, and over time the cells become less responsive to insulin. This condition, known as insulin resistance, is a huge health problem and it is estimated to affect half the American population. Insulin resistance is associated with abnormalities in cholesterol and triglyceride levels, hypertension, increased risk of heart disease and diabetes (and much more - read on)

Bird Flue Pandemic - stopped by sugar!!!

US scientists have found that the shape of sugar molecules on cell surfaces in the upper respiratory tract determine how easy it is for influenza viruses to infect humans, and suggest that if the deadly strain of H5N1 bird flu were to adapt a way to bind to this shape of sugar molecule it would spread easily from human to human and provoke a world pandemic.
