There are a large number of nerves supplying the gut, leading some to call it the 2nd brain. Why the sugar causes a flair-up, I don't know, but something to think about. Sounds like you should avoid sugar, which would be great for all of us, but I am certainly not willing to do so at this point, so I understand. Good luck.

Thanks Ron,
I am also sad to give up sugar but I think in the long run I'll be glad I did. I wish you well on your journey too.
