However, if you do not have diabetes, sugar intake will not cause diabetes. So far, high in calories diets, being overweight, and an inactive lifestyle are the main risk factors for Type 2 diabetes.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">A study published in Diabetes Care (April 2003) re-confirmed that sugar does not cause diabetes. In this study, researchers analyzed data on nearly 39,000 middle-aged women, all of whom completed a 131-item food questionnaire. Six years later, there were 918 cases of Type 2 diabetes reported. Researchers found no definitive influence of sugar intake on the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b>you may ask can I eat as much sweets as I wish?</b><o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">The simple answer is No. Although sugar does not cause diabetes, excessive calories does. Excess caloric intake usually results in overweight and obesity - which is the main risk factor for diabetes.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/602449250160363202-6355513315513819900?l=foodandhealth-nutrition-foodandhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>foodandhealth-nutritionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12750489128293784951noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-602449250160363202.post-69054839693121001592008-12-23T10:29:00.000-08:002008-12-23T10:42:25.227-08:00Food and health simply mean the relationship between the food you take in and it's contribution to your healthy life. the effect may be good or bad depending on the amount and how often you eat the particular food. for example high intake of food with high cholesterol level may lead to heart diseases and stroke. <span style="font-weight: bold;">YOU CAN GO THROUGH THE CHART BELOW</span><br /><div align="center"> <div><img alt="Healthy Eating Guidelines" src="http://www.healthcastle.com/images/food_piechart_opt.gif" width="345" border="0" height="149" /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/602449250160363202-6905483969312100159?l=foodandhealth-nutrition-foodandhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>foodandhealth-nutritionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12750489128293784951noreply@blogger.com0
