Low Glycemic Index

A study shows that consuming foods sweetened with artificial sweeteners actually leads to more weight gain than if one consumes foods with regular sugar. I want to also add even though it is not mentioned in this video that aspartame which is present in many artificial sweeteners is a carcinogen (it causes cancer). I am in agreement that conventional white sugar is unhealthy (although not as unhealthy as artificial sweeteners). One tablespoon of conventional white sugar can weaken the immune system for about four hours. However I recommend for those who are not diabetic to use pure cane sugar or honey to sweeten their foods. Diabetics can use with caution limited amounts of honey to sweeten foods. It has been proven in studies to be beneficial for the health of diabetics. Go to this link to read about a study: www.naturalproductsinsider.com
