Sugar is a POISON!: This is because sugar is literally a poison; it is toxic in the sense that it is very harmful to our health in many ways; increasing inflammation, impairing immunity, disrupting hormones etc. As with any poison, the more you take the worse the effect; a little after a balanced meal will not create nearly as many problems as lots on an empty stomach.
