when you eat sugar, it does weaken your immune system for about 4 hours. so, a person who is always eating sugar is always compromising his/her immunity. but, to say that sugar is the root of all disease, that is ridiculous. radiation, pesticides, an unhealthy lifestyle, can all have an effect on a person's health. sugar is naturally occuring in fruits, and vegies and milk, so we do need it to help with energy. Our bodies were meant to be in motion most of the time burning calories and sugars in our systems. exercise helps build a healthy immune system also. reducing one's refined sugar intake wouldn't hurt, but one should look at his/her total lifestyle to achieve optimum health.

No, because there were diseases before refined sugar came about...for example i don't think malaria is attributable to refined sugar. I doubt polio and smallpox are attributable to refined sugar. Probably not bubonic plague either. I doubt AIDS is caused by refined sugar. But i do believe refined sugar is bad and contributes to many diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, fatigue diseases, depression and many other things.

I don't think it is the sugar itself but the way we abuse it in our foods. Refined sugar is that they take the sugar beat and grind it up unlike bleached flour is wheat flour that the bleached. On the bleached flour I would have to agree. It could cause heath problems..

No, I'm sure there was disease before humans started refining sugar.
