"SUGAR BROKEN DOWN
Sugar is the broad spectrum term for sucrose, lactose and maltose, respectively. Sucrose is the form most commonly found in foods, or table sugar, a derivative of sugar beets or cane sugar. Fructose is derived from fruits, lactose from milk, and maltose from malted foods, such as barley.

HFCS is derived from highly processed corn, a starchy grain. It has near equal amounts of fructose and sucrose and is similar to table sugar from a compounding perspective. Unlike fruit, however, this type of fructose is not bound to fiber causing the body to process it faster and leaving the body unsatisfied. Starches and grains often have a higher glycemic index than all sugars, and corn falls within this category. In addition, almost all of the United States corn production is genetically modified, adding to health risks.

A Princeton University study showed rats gained significant more weight when consuming HFCS in comparison to table sugar, even when the caloric intake was the same. Most interesting is the rats accessibility to sucrose was equal to the sweetness of sugar and the HFCS was half as sweet as that found in soft drinks. The rats who consumed HFCS gained 48% more weight than their sucrose peers and had significant deposits of abdominal fat and circulating triglycerides. In humans, these are characteristics of obesity, heart disease, diabetes and cancer.

and the estrogen in soy
and some trivia
I have been told more than once, the 2 main companies that control most of the US and Brazilian soy spend more than the cigarette companies on marketing to tell you soy is good for you.
Guess the US spent lots telling you cigarettes are good for you as well?

Try finding a government that will tell you soy is good for you??

 

Being green. How many of us old timers can relate to this story??

Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment.

The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days."

The young clerk responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment f or future generations."

She was right -- our generation didn't have the green thing in its day.

Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were truly recycled.

But we didn't have the green thing back in our day.

Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags, which we reused for numerous things, most memorable besides household garbage bags, was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our schoolbooks. This was to ensure that public property, (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribbling. Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags.

But too bad we didn't do the green thing back then.

We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.

But she was right. We didn't have the green thing in our day.

Back then, we washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throwaway kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.

But that young lady is right; we didn't have the green thing back in our day.

Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

But she's right; we didn't have the green thing back then.

We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

But we didn't have the green thing back then.

Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.

But isn't it said the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the green thing back then?

 

Everybody knows that junk food is junk. Best to eat fresh produce when available and obey the standard dietary guidelines put forth by scientists.

something like 2000 calories per day spread over the various food groups.

An All vegetable diet turns you into a pill popping hypochondriac.

An all meat diet turns you into a Troglodyte.

An All fish diet turns you into a Walrus

If you are a Human, best to eat like one.

 

Soy has been a significant part of many Asian diets for the last five thousand years or so. As a matter of act, Okinawa eats more per capita than any country in the world -- and it also has the healthiest population in the world. Soy certainly hasn't made them fat.

You need to make up your mind, anyway. Didn't you just finish telling us "the corrupt way DC runs with the farm lobby has [us] all poisoned with soy and corn products"? If that's the case, you'd think it would be lauding the stuff to the skies.... especially since you seem to think it was tax dollars paying for all that cigarette advertising years ago.

I'm not really into paranoia, and I doubt soybean and corn farmers are deliberately poisoning us for profit with the connivance of our own government. I guess some people have a need to worry.... they aren't happy, unless the world is facing impending doom from one thing or another. But if I listened to all of them, I'd be afraid to get out of bed in the morning

add: I'm no more impressed by the hysteria about soy being bad for us than I was by the hype we used to get, about what a wonder food and health panacea it is.

 

Did I miss the point?
We are omnivores- from start to finish.
Just look at our intestinal track in relation to all the other mammals.

 

In future meat will be very expensive. Takes plenty of food and energy to fatten an animal. The price of meat, if left free of distorting government intervention, will discourage people from overconsuming meat.

Hopefully price will prevent people from overconsuming any resorces....timber, oil, fish..........

Is a Carbon Tax a Done Deal for the US?

Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM) is now supporting Obama in bringing a carbon tax to the US.

Why would Exxon – and other big energy companies – join forces to bring on the carbon tax?

The answer is simple: profits.

 

Interesting read....
