Sugar uses up your stores of vitamins and minerals and gives you nothing in return but empty calories.

Researchers at the Massachusettes Institute of Technology found that the higher the intake of refined carbs the lower the IQ; by 25 points!

Extra glucose in the blood also damages the brain and nerve tissues.

Learning things like this has me even more satisfied that I've chosen a more natural diet. Personally I know that I've been more mentally alert, and certainly happier since I went raw. My husband will definitely back me up on this statement!

Cheers,
