There is no denying that refined carbohydrates can adversely affect your health. Refined sugar is one such class of carbohydrate and excessive intake can cause damage. Sugars present in table sugar, and syrups that are derived from sugar cane, beets, maple, corn and honey are responsible for damaging health, unlike the fructose in fruit or lactose in milk. More than two teaspoons of sugar a day takes a toll on your health because uncontrolled sugar intake leads to a condition called dysglycemia or imbalance in blood sugar.
