Quite a few sites post recipes claiming they are sugar free, but in fact these recipes are only refined sugar free, and nearly all of them that claim to be sugar free still contain a sweetener of some description that is in fact just as bad as your humble white table sugar or worse, and it really makes me mad.
Why should I care? well I do care about the health of people, all people not just family and friends although they are on top of my care list, but I feel very strongly about the deceit, and the smoke and mirrors used by the government bodies, the health department and more than likely the group that mostly likely gains the most "the pharmaceutical big wigs" for years we have been feed a series of wrong information, about what our diet should be to have a long and healthy life. And then I see these posts of recipes touting "sugar free" recipes with yet more wrong information, and feel that people deserve to know all the facts so they can make a choice about their health. Shouldn't you be in charge of you? I know that I am in control of me, and it took me a long time to take charge, like everyone else I listened to the advice of the "health officials" but half of these "health officials" haven't been to college in over 30 years and the information in the last 30 years is WRONG! I do start to think that humanity is not that bad when I hear a reputable doctor say "I was wrong" or " the information to the public was wrong" either way they are far and few in between, but still it is promising that there are some that are opening their eyes and opening our eyes to the facts. But for every one person that divulges the truth about what is healthy, there are a dozen that will still try and pull the wool over your eyes. The good news is that more people are starting to cut the sugar down or out of their diet, and this is where I feel that to make the impact on your health that you deserve you need to know that although you have cut out the soft drinks that contain the 16 teaspoons of sugar, you may still think that your morning orange juice is ok? but no that has 14 teaspoons of sugar or more depending on your glass size, and it doesn't matter if you squeezed it at home fresh it is still full of sugar! not your refined white table sugar but it is full of "FRUCTOSE" the deadly component of refined white table sugar (which is made up of 50% Sucrose and 50% Fructose), have a look at the list below of the so called "Healthy Sugars" and a rule of thumb should be if it has the name "sugar" then it is sugar and avoid using it no matter what other fancy name they stick in front of it!
