MEN’S HEALTH MONTH – Sugar Sucks

“We now know that sugar is causing an epidemic of health problems: type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, low energy. It’s hidden in so many processed foods, half the time we don’t even know we’re eating it. Take a look at what you’re putting into your body. If you have created a habit of eating packet meals and drinking sugary drinks, try preparing your meals from basic ingredients and drinking water, even if it’s just for a week. You’ll feel better for it and maybe break a few bad habits.”
