Sugar Is The 2nd Root Of Evil
An experiment was done with babies, they were left in a room with plates of different foods, meats, vegetables, fruit and potatoes etc. The babies would pick what they wanted, and over the course of a day or week, they ate a balanced diet by themselves, until sugar was introduced to them, then.......never never again.

Too strong to say the root of all evil, but I have voted yes because I have medical knowledge and also became almost diabetic myself as a result of carbohydrates and the sugars within. I cut sugar out, was very poorly for 2 weeks detoxing and rebalancing my Glucose levels, and then dropped 3 stone quickly and felt 100% better. Sugar is in almost every supermarket product other than fresh foods, and is responsible for setting up the obesity problem we have today.

 I know, I too am in the field of working with people with this and other chronic illness problems. What did you think of the statement under the title, about that experiment?

Sugar is not a "root of all evil" all that sugar does to you is give you diabeties. Sugar doesn't make you hiper. Studies show that caffine in the sugar and in soda and in other sweets is what makes you hiper.

Its very addicting but not really evil. Did the babies die when they ate the sugar?

I would argue that caffeine is.

I think sugar is definitely in the Top 10 of the 'root of all evil'.
But not the '2nd root of all evil'.
Surely money is higher in evilness than sugar.
We use money to buy the sugar.

Yes perhaps sugar makes you eat unhealthily but root of evil ? Rather strong
