Sugar in its concentrated form is poisonous because it causes swelling in
the joints, liver, and brain. If you have an injury or a chronic illness, sugar
will impede your body's healing. Sugar provides energy to cancer cells
and all infectious diseases. It also inhibits the absorption of nutrients,
particularly all minerals.

immunity this winter

Flour
Research has proven that all purpose flour is very harmful to the body.
Frequent consumption of foods which include refined flour leads to
weight gain. Not only this, flour also increases cholesterol levels and
boosts blood triglycerides. Refined flour is acidic because the fibre and
protein from it are reduced drastically during its preparation. Flour
weakens the bones because calcium is absorbed by the flour.
 

Salt
Excessive consumption of salt is extremely harmful to your heart health.
A study conducted by the WHO has revealed that an increase in incidence
of strokes was observed in people who consume too much salt. According
to the WHO report, approximately 11 million people die annually from
poor food, of which three million of these die because of excessive salt
consumption. 

Oil
People who love fast food or oily snacks are more likely to suffer from
diabetes along with obesity. Apart from this, the amount of fat in the body
increases due to consumption of excessive oil. Incidents of abdominal
pain, bloating, diarrhoea and vomiting may also occur. Consuming oily
foods increases the risk of a heart attack as it increases blood pressure
and cholesterol in the body. 

These are ingredients which have always had a pride of place in most
kitchens. Since more and more studies indicate that consumption of these
foods is bad for health, we must make a conscious change towards a
healthier lifestyle or else be prepared to cough up hefty medical bills in
future.
