1:23 Organic cane sugar must be healthy because it’s organic, right?
3:20 Sometimes the total carbohydrates given on a label is misleading
When I still saw patients in my clinic, I would ask them to bring in their food so we could evaluate it. Many times they brought items that they believed were sugar-free, but on closer examination, it became clear that the manufacturer had packaged it in such a way as to sneak in sugar and make it seem healthier than it is. Here are numerous examples:
● Real cane sugar; okay, as compared to what? Fake cane sugar?
● Brown sugar. The difference between it and white sugar is that brown has a minuscule trace of molasses, but not enough to make any nutritious difference.
● Sugar in the raw; what, like that’s better because it’s raw? It’s still refined sugar and will create the same blood sugar issues.
● Coconut sugar. Sounds healthy, because it comes from coconuts.
● Organic cane sugar must be healthy because it’s organic, right?
● Fruit juice concentrate, because we know fruit is healthy (sarcasm intended)
● Made with real fruit. Sure, to start with, then it’s heavily processed.
● Made with whole grains. But we know that whole grains aren’t healthy! Their phytates deplete minerals such as zinc, not to mention the gluten that can destroy your stomach. And I guarantee they’ll add refined grains.
● Brown rice sugar. As compared to what, white rice sugar?
● Beet sugar, as though beets are better. But they’re genetically modified, so you’re getting glyphosate.
● Date sugar, which may have slightly more vitamins and minerals but has the same glycemic effect as other sugar.
● Honey will spike insulin.
● Maple syrup will also spike insulin.
● Agave nectar is mostly fructose and can cause insulin resistance.
● Barley malt is also highly glycemic.
Sometimes the total carbohydrates listed on a label are misleading as far as total sugars. For example, a potato chip might have just 22 grams of net carbs but because it’s fried, it will spike your blood sugar because there is no fiber content to offset the carbs.
Another sneaky word that’s used is natural. As if that automatically makes it healthy!
Be sure to watch right through to the end because I explain more ways that food labels are meant to mislead you, and try to make sugar seem healthier than it is.

Food labels can be very misleading about the actual sugar type and content contained in the food item.
