I used to believe that. My mother was told by a doctor that the candy she ate caused her diabetes, while I was still in my early teens. At that point, I quit putting sugar on my cereal, avoided sweets, and learned to like unsweetened foods. Well, guess what.... 35 years later, I find out I'm diabetic. No, folks... it's not sugar. It's genetic predisposition, poor diet, poor weight management, and sedentary lifestyle (lack of exercise). Since adopting a rather comprehensive lifestyle change, I've found that managing your blood sugar is not that difficult if you're willing to make a few easy changes in your routine. I managed a 5.8 on my hemoglobin A1C test last month. Check out my diabetes information webpage for details: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/Type_II_Diabetes.html
