Carbohydrates and especially sugar, triggers insulin. While insulin is in the bloodstream, other hormones are not allowed to be produced. Controlling insulin levels balance out other hormones & allow sex hormones (testosterone in males) & human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced at maximum levels.
A low carb diet is the best way to achieve optimal health levels.
It can. It depends on what the sugar is in.
It never helps to have a large amount of sugar intake.
When sugar is in things like soda, or snack foods, it can deffinately take a toll on someone's sex drive.
Drinks like Mountain Dew and Monster energy drinks contain Yellow 5. This reduces sperm count and makes getting going a challenge.
Natural cane sugar is deffinately better for you than splenda or man-made sugars.
It's more that it affects overall health. Processed sugar has no nutritional value. Natural cane sugar is obviously the best to have, otherwise, organic raw sugar. As unprocessed as possible - or use honey instead as a sweetener. There's also the costly Stevia herb.
But if you want more info about sugar, look up 'white death' although you might get a lot of info about drugs in the results.
