November Monthly Myth: National Diabetes Month: Does sugar causes diabetes?
One of the most common nutrition myths is that sugar causes diabetes. If you have diabetes, you do need to watch your sugar and carbohydrate intake, with the help of a nutritionist or dietician, to properly manage your blood sugar level. However, if you do not have diabetes, sugar intake will not cause you to develop the disease. The main risk factors for type 2 diabetes are a diet high in calories, being overweight, and an inactive lifestyle. For more nutrition information, visit www.associatesinnutrition.com
