All-natural forms of sugar are simple carbohydrates that our bodies use for energy.  Sugar affects many-body systems, so too much sugar can be harmful to your health.
Sugar, Sugar, Sugar
By Pierre Mouchette | Bits-n-Pieces
Sugars are naturally found in many different foods, and all-natural forms of sugar are simple carbohydrates that the body uses for energy.  Although naturally occurring sugars in foods such as fruit and dairy can be part of a healthy diet, too much sugar can be harmful to your health, especially for people with diabetes. 
 
Why You Should Eat Less Sugar
Sugars contribute additional calories to food without providing any nutrients.  People with health conditions that affect blood sugar control, such as diabetes, should avoid sugary foods.
Sugar affects many body systems, including:
  • Diabetes - added sugars in the diet are associated with a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes.  Adults with diabetes who consume too much sugar will have it interfere with their blood sugar control.
  • Oral Health - all forms of sugar allow bacteria to multiply and grow.  This promotes tooth decay!  Consuming foods and beverages with natural or added sugars increases the chance of developing cavities, especially those who do not practice good oral hygiene.
  • Weight Management - adding sugar to foods and beverages increases their caloric density without increasing their nutritional value.  Sweetening foods also make them easier to overeat, making it difficult to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight.
