This would literally save us billions. It would also save lives and make everyone slim and sexy.

Isn't sugar's effect just alcohol without the inebriation? Dunno if it's worse than that, but maybe the massively higher consumption offsets that.

You think all these processed sugar-filled foods came about for no reason? It's how you keep hordes of subhuman docile. No need to ban it, it serves a purpose.

>Explain to me how would banning sugar be bad for the World?
the human body requires some intake of sugar each day or you will actually die.

you can ban high fructose corn syrup though.
that shit is straight out poison.

Sugar gives you diabetes in the long run and takes your energy away. It makes you sleepy.

People should be allowed to choose to eat, drink and smoke bad shit if they want to... people who have no self-control and go overboard and get ill from over-indulging shouldn't make shit bad for everyone else.
Banning shit does nothing but ruin it for a majority who don't abuse it.

Sugar is literally a nutrient required in a balanced diet. Nearly all sugar substitutes are far worse than sugar itself. The problem with sugar (as with salt) is overconsumption. People need to have better self-discipline. As opposed to banning things to save the idiots, we should leave them to the results of their ill decisions and use them as an example of failure.

There is "some" sugar and salt in everything you eat. There is no reason to add extra sugar to that.

And you are going to pay for their bad decisions via NHS.

if you try to take sugar from me ill kill you

You're 100% correct about HFCS. I was in the US recently and it was in everything (even the milk). I felt genuinely sluggish and sick from the food. It tastes like shit as well.

>banning fruit and vegetables

You sound addicted.

I don't think an outright ban would be effective. Simply by the nature of being contrarian some people would rally against it. You'd have retards in the street eating bags of sugar as a protest.
You could tax it out of widespread use, or at least regulate it somewhat. The issue is that people spent their whole lives eating food of every sort that had sugar added. Sugar is part of their cultural norm now.

I'm with you though. Sugar absolutely is the root cause of type II diabetes, and its the sole cause of the obesity epidemic. We spend over a hundred billion dollars per year in the US to treat heart disease alone and that is virtually all sugar.

Sugar outside of fruit is genuinely not good for your body. Your tolerance for processing sugar is actually very low, and having high levels of insulin regularly enter your blood stream is terrible for you. It effectively is a growth hormone.
You shouldn't be eating over 20g per day.

Nah, only crystalized sugar.

You wouldn't feel sluggish from fructose. It creates energy. You had the flue.

sugar is my only joy in life

>You shouldn't be eating over 20g per day.

what if i eat 10 times that amount a day

Maybe if we free your from your addiction you would start looking for alternatives? Maybe sex and family?

you need the energy for toilet cleaning m8

You will develop diabetes by your 40's.

Thats a real addiction, dude. Start lowering your intake, stop drinking soda, stop eating cookies, and start exercising.
You need to get your dopamine drip from exercise, not from eating sweets.

You would put yourself in pre diabetic state in a short amount of time if you were consuming that much. Even 100g per day is extreme.

wtf is that in your pic?

no i tried that already and now my heart is dead
sugar is my only friend
this isn't satire
im serious

Those cocoa puffs look fucked up

Looks like oats with hazelnut, brown sugar, and honey.

i drink at least 5 sodas per day at 40g a piece

honestly it's great
i enjoy the caffeine too
coffee makes me ill

Porridge with nuts, hot water and a spoon of dark honey.

Thank

Sugar kills your libido and makes your dick flat you moron. You need to wait longer for results. Shit won't revert to the natural state in one month after years of abuse.

Bro what do your teeth look like? Washing your teeth in acid like that is terrible on top of all the other issues.
You need to love yourself, and that means doing whats good for your body.

>sex and family
Are you advocating what I think you're advocating?

Oats mixed with hot water release natural sugar in form of that white glue.

How about you learn some self control? Quit trying to project your problems elsewhere.

Banning sugar would literally make everyone smarter and more in control of themselves but depression will skyrocket. Don't forget the withdrawal symptoms those who were born off sugar will experience.

>t.sugartooth

You know god damn well that normies can't control themselves.

Yeah, this. Plenty (all?) of fruits and vegetables naturally contain sugar. Nothing wrong with that at all.

HFCS is from Satan, though, and tough to avoid entirely.

>but depression will skyrocket
Give them a war to keep them busy.

my teeth are ruined

What if I do pot to tolerate the stuff on pol? Mutilation or rape doesn't even make me flinch anymore.

What woman would want you now?

Maybe you should leave Sup Forums and stop burning money just to force yourself into staying here? Bee yourself.

I guess it's a good thing because it will make people seek out new stuff to do than sit down and eat ice cream or sweets to cope.

You're right. Oh wait. We have dentists.

>eating bird food

Hey fuck you slav nigger, you can't fucking stop me from making cookies for Christmas

Can you afford a dentist at this point?

Where? With what? I don't even live somewhere I even like. I haven't spoken to my old friends in 6 months.

>Maybe you should leave Sup Forums

It doesn't work like that

can u stop

Yeah. It's expensive. I drink carbonated water now. Brush often and see the dentist often.

A small amount of fruit has all the sugar you could possibly need. If your body intakes excess protein you'll eventually turn it into sugar for energy. Things like carrots are complex carbs and will break down into sugar. Your metabolism is a near perfect system.
You literally do not need added sugar in any form. It is something we never had in our diets until the 1800s.

If you know its bad, and its harming you, why keep doing it?
Genuine questions. Have you ever thought about it before? Addiction specialists now are staring to look at things like smoking as a type of self harm. Knowing you're doing something bad to yourself but continuing to do it absolutely is masochistic. Your consumption of soda is akin to smoking.

If you think you're deserving of punishment subconsciously you need to sort yourself out to get to the bottom of your addiction and free yourself from it.

1 Kg for 1 USD in store
cheaper in the mill

women only hurt me badly. there is no love for me. only loneliness and death. and sugar.
i can. too depressed right now.

i also really like hazlenuts

Should add granola to it, user.

Would be 4x better.

noob, be more specific, the human body uses carb, carb is converted to sugar, different type of carb food sources have different level of glycemic index, sugar is at 100
obviously people don't need refined sugar, just carb from breads, rice and oats

...

...

granola/muesli is expensive as fuck in Europe

...

are you going to pay for the massive increase of law enforcement to crack down on illegal sugar?

Uhhh.. No it wouldn't you commie. It's retarded liberal bull shit like this that made Bloomberg the laughing joke of the world when he went after salt and soda.

The AHA puts their stamp of approval on sugary children's breakfast cereal.
Here you see them recommending fruit juice, which is worse for your health than soda itself in terms of sugar content.
For decades, the AHA pushed trans fat containing margarine as opposed to butter, they encouraged people to eat refined grains instead of meat...

I wonder how many lives the AHA is responsible for killing with its bad advice.

Well you're halfway there, if you can get oats.

Also use maple syrup/honey instead of sugar, add a small bit of oil or melted butter, mix it all together and bake it @ 300 F for 10 minutes or so on a cookie sheet.

milk is poison for adults
It cases inflamation and finally cause cancer

This is correct. The human body needs at least a piece of Twix or KitKat every day or it will die

censored

I am using honey you mong! That's the entire point.

Put some smokey tabasco in there. Its outstanding. The smell is fucking amazing.

sugar isn't a drug you inbred simpletons

I always thought that you can starve for up to a month.

You can, but you still need candy and some water every day

add one coca cola can and I agree

fruits are overrated compared to vegetables

fixed

I hate phoneposting ...ignore that last link

you guys are my allies

Water only. The point of starving yourself is to make your body use its fat.

What kind of nuts are those?

Fat people (300lbs+) can starve for over a year as long as they have water and a few vitamins
The original reason for fat stores was to survive without food for long periods of time.

Great idea. Let's ban water too while we're at it.

You can stay in a fasting state for as long as your body has available fat to burn. When you're fasting your body is producing higher levels of ketones, and they actually act to preserve muscle tissue. You could technically safely go without food until the point where you started metabolizing the vital fat stores around your organs.

Fuck yeah, 0 calories!

Should I do it? How to prepare for fasting? Any protips from my Muslim and Jewish friends on Sup Forums?

that artificially sweetened soda is supposed to be almost equally as bad as the sugary soda.

>How to prepare for fasting?
I want to do this too but I am so lazy. All you need to do is just drink water, and make sure to have some salt and potassium if it is just a 2 or 3 day fast, and probably a multi vitamin for a day+ day fast. I'm just guessing, maybe some one with experience will answer

>The point of starving yourself is to make your body use its fat.
But won't it enter "survival" mode and try to hold on to fat as much as it can to the point where you will get fat more easily after you start eating again?

>for a day+ day fast
*for a 3+ day fast

I used to have bad stomach ulcers from stress and a shitty diet. I started doing periodic fasting when I started eating more gut healthy foods, and cut sugar out of my diet.
The best way to start fasting is to go in small steps, and that begins with extending the time between your meals. A practical example would be eating dinner at 6pm, drinking nothing but water after that, sleep throughout the night, wake up in the morning, and don't eat breakfast for a few hours after you wake up. When you wake in the morning only drink water, no coffee, or tea. Coffee and tea both have compounds that your body has to do extra work to metabolize and that can disrupt the process your metabolism is going through when you fast.

If you can go 14-16 hours easily without eating you can try going a full day.

Carbs make you fat, not sugar.
Unless you're an american.

There is no real preparing, it's purely willpower.

Water only.

Because your body actually needs some sugar. Do they teach biology in Poland?
