Sugar Diabetes is a word used frequently to describe diabetes it is based on a popular diabetes theme however which might cause some confusion.

Diabetes is not caused by eating too much sugar and the sugar am talking about is the kind found in today’s regular diet.

I can see where the sugar diabetes myth originated from, most of the good myths are predicated on some truths. Diabetes is a disease where the body fails to synthesize Glucose which is a form of sugar correctly, now this sugar is produced from the body’s digestion process.

The glucose our body makes does not necessarily come from table sugar, which means that you will not have a higher level of glucose if you eat more sugar than you would have if you eat let say bread.

The digestion process creates glucose from carbohydrates which is then burned as fuel to create energy.

Diabetics have a tough time synthesizing this glucose which builds up in the bloodstream and thus the Sugar Diabetes term.
