Default good ol' Table Sugar

is not the worst of the glucose gang...as I recall it's a disaccharide meaning it is made up of two molecules,and as you add more molecules you get a longer chain and a less sweet taste. There is some issue in the states just now over the use of corn based sugar (it is a polysacchride and can be added to everything without making it taste sweet), and it's highly addictive and causes you to feel hungrier than you are. I'm too lazy to look it up, but the bottom line is ya gotta learn to read nutrition/ingrediant labels.

We all have good days and we all have bad days. The only constant variables physiologicaly are what we put in our mouths and our activity levels. Think about it. Feel free to correct me if I didn't get it right....there are many here more knowledgeable than I.
