Medical Forum / General / Nutrition / August 2005No link between sugar and obesity - sugar group
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050810/hl_nm/food_sugar_obesity_dc_1 > http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050810/hl_nm/food_sugar_obesity_dc_1 Yeah, right. Big surprise that the head of the sugar industry would make such a statement without any scientific study or proof whatsoever. People are supposed to take this guy's word for it?? ..."Andrew Briscoe, president and chief executive of the Sugar Association, said at the annual meeting of the main U.S. industry group American Sugar Alliance." Why would you even post something so ridiculous? (Why am I even responding to something so ridiculous?) >> http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050810/hl_nm/food_sugar_obesity_dc_1 > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >Why would you even post something so ridiculous? (Why am I even >responding to something so ridiculous?) I posted it because it is so ridiculous. It is important to know that these bastards (the sugar industry) is being subsidized with taxpayer money and spreading lies at the same time to keep the federal income stream flowing. Intellectually dishonest, but I'd say it's probably true, or largely so, in that maybe for that particular sugar molecule, sucrose, consumption has gone down as they say. So that could be true, and so the correlation wouldn't be there for that specific molecule. My guess, though, is that total sugars consumed have almost certainly gone up, and would have a correlation. So you could probably "blame" things like high fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, etc. The advent of cheap, shelf-stable fats, as well. >>http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050810/hl_nm/food_sugar_obesity_dc_1 > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Why would you even post something so ridiculous?

And your rational answer is to put healthcare under the NIH, FDA and BUSH? I would suggest you Canadians need a reality check. It would never happen because of the pathetic system for all to see in Canada and because of the abuses of NIH, FDA and Bush. The reason why it is peeing into the wind with making changes is because you are dealing with federal agencies that answer only to politicians. You hear TC fall in love with the Canadian government when they kill people waiting for treatment and then when it comes to the US federal agencies all of a sudden they are corrupt. The answer is to put the healthcare under a federal system and then TC will love all the US agencies. > > http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050810/hl_nm/food_sugar_obesity_dc_1 > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > And Robert says that the NIHs are ethically and professionally sqeaky > clean... I never said the NIH was clean and pure. I said I don't want to have a national system under the FDA like they have in Canada with Health Canada. I don't want federal politicians running healthcare. Please report all the abuse by federal regulatory agencies and then proclaim your Health Canada as a model for the world. Please complain about George Bush and the way he handles the budget including war expenditures. Then proclaim Canada with the Prime Minister as the ideal system as head of healthcare. I said that YOU complaining about the US does nothing for YOU as a Canadian. It only makes you a troll. > And PETA says that vegetarianism and veganisn is healthy... > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > TC |
