Sugar An Immune System Weakener

An overdose of sugar can weaken the immune system.  Eating or drinking 100 grams (8 tbsp) of sugar, the equivalent of two and a half 12 ounce cans of soda, can reduce the ability of white blood cells to kill germs by 40 percent. 

The immune-suppressing effect of sugar starts less than thirty minutes after ingestion and may last for five hours.  In contrast, the ingestion of complex carbohydrates, or starches, has no effect on the immune system.

Don’t replace regular sodas with diet sodas because the artificial sweetners are worse for your body than sugar. See my blog on Aspartame and Splenda.

Safe Alternative to Cold and Cough Medicine

There are warnings from the FDA to not give children under four years of age, “over the counter” cough and cold medicine.  There were over 7,000 kids seen in emergency rooms because of side effects.  Why give your kids these dangerous medicines?

There are Homeopathic Remedies with no side effects, available.  Health food stores, such as Whole Foods, carry ‘kits for kids’ with instructions for teething, colds, coughs, fevers, running noses, stomach aches, allergies, ear infections, etc.  Homeopathic Remedies have been around for over 200 years.  They are safe, effective and natural and inexpensive.  There has never been a remedy recalled or taken off of the market.
