How doe the body know what kind of sugar it takes in? Can it tell the difference?
glucose goes right into the bloodstream immediately.. fructose needs to be processed first by the liver to be used. Some health conspiracy nuts say this is bad for the liver, but the evidence is rather inconclusive... large amounts of refined carbohydrates of any kind can be bad for a person if they consume too many in a short period of time, faster than the pancreas can secrete the insulin needed to keep them in check.
Lots of things can be bad for you though, and every body chemistry is different. My newest discovery is that high levels of iron could be responsible for many diseases as people age, particularly in males, and that regular blood donation among men is important.
I wouldn't worry about eating oranges, apples, and grapes in small to moderate quantities daily... can after can of regular mountain dew? That could be more problematic in the long run... and refined store bought orange juice, or any pasteurized fruit juices, are really no more healthy than soda and should only be consumed in moderation and not seen as 'health drinks'
Boobs are often classified as modified sweat glands so calling cow milk cow sweat IMHO is cute/fun/ny and truer than calling honey bee vomit.
Well in that case I think a few thank you to all are in order
I would like to thank all human females and their modified sweat glands. Weather they were modified naturally or in a doctors office. My eyes thank you.
And cows well I thank you for helping me eat my cereal in the morning. Cereal and cow sweat. What's not to like. My tummy thanks you.
But I can't figure out why anyone would intentionally try to plant this image in a person's head - anyone older than about 5, at least. It's either very juvenile or deliberately off-putting - and either way, it seems pretty unnecessary.
Folks just enjoy the thread and don't get too wound up. Either contribute or move along. If posts bother you remember to report them if you think they violate the TOS. Thanks and have a great day!
