From a concerned friend… It is possible that for the sake of simplicity and the need to get on with our lives, many literally *only look for sugar* and expect it to be labelled as "sugar" in the foods they have come to like. In today's world of ultra processed foods (UPF) and through _smart_ side-stepping of the laws, many UPFs replace sugar with names that confuse many. Anyone taking their health seriously will need to be educated on such strategies designed to mislead, as explained in this clip: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BTnReJtMG/ Ultimately, it is important to know what the food breaks down into when digested. That's why bread, rice, potatoes etc often gets lumped together; they all break down into glucose. (Proteins from meats into amino acids and fats into fats.) Even fruits, despite being _natural_ are also a source of glucose (& fructose). Further, given how many have been bred to be bigger and sweeter, today's fruits are essentially big sugar bombs.

proteins and fats are nutritionally essential.
Counter-intuitive? https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1LM2gkJvDz/ Could it be true, nevertheless? It is also helpful to know that you don't lose weight to be healthy, you get healthy first (even more counter-intuitive?) and then the weight comes off! Weight loss is a by‑product of metabolic healing. Metabolic healing is a product of diet and lifestyle. Finally, a diet of only nutritionally essential foods is sufficient to thrive and only proteins and fats are nutritionally essential. If these seem unconventional, perhaps you might want to wonder if being conventional has led to an epidemic and still a rising rate of chronic diseases. Sent from my iPhone

it is hard to overeat proteins and fats but very easy to do so for carbs.
From a concerned friend… Calories has been a common concern, particularly too much of it. That concern has been fueled by media and for some, even their doctors. Today, however, it is more important to be concerned with what you eat: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18Bn75F9va/ Hard to believe as it may seem, it is hard to overeat proteins and fats and very easy to do so for carbs. Unfortunately carbs, especially refined ones, spike blood sugar (which damages the *small* arteries and veins) and keeps insulin high (which damages the *large* arteries and veins). There is still time to make a change; the body is quite forgiving. Sent from my iPhone
