"Is sugar really that bad for your health?"
"It makes everything taste so good."
"How can it be bad?"
"Well, our dentists have been telling us for years that it is bad for our teeth. Our governments put a deadly poison,FLUORIDE, in our water to 'apparently' prevent tooth decay."
There must be a lot of people either just hate anyone for having a little fun with sugar or maybe they are right. OMG, heaven forbid that I should ever have to give up my favorite "addiction". If you don't think it is addictive, just try giving it up for a week. If you think you can do it; I bet you can't do it.
Nancy Appleton is a well known author of many books. One is called 'Lick the sugar habit'. She has done her home work and if you don't know what is 'wrong' with you or your kids, give this a try and become your own health expert. Nancy Appleton gives 141 reasons why sugar is bad for you. And she backs it all up with documented research.

Look at the small print on your toothpaste. My Arm and Hammer Advanced White says:
"Sodium Fluoride 0.24% ... WARNING: Keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If more than used for brushing is swallowed, get medical attention or contact Poison Control right away." Is this a joke? It's no joke. And you've been warned.
In case you didn't know there are alternatives. Tom's of Maine makes 'fluoride free' antiplaque & Whitening toothpaste that you kids can play with. Baking Soda (sodium bicarbonate) is another option, but it doesn't taste that great for the long term. I'm sure there are other companies that make products just as good as what I personally use.
