What about refined sugars? What are they and why are they bad?

Refined sugar contains no fiber, no minerals, no proteins, no fats, no enzymes, only empty calories. What happens when you eat a refined carbohydrate like sugar? Your body must borrow vital nutrients from healthy cells to metabolize the incomplete food.

You can find refined sugars in such foods as. Skittles and Starbursts, Reese’s, Chocolate chips cookies, cake, donuts, frozen yogurt, ice cream, pies, and basically any of those wonderful sugary treats we have come to love that we can’t eat while on the HCG Diet.

So stick with fruits while on your HCG diet plan and you can’t go wrong. Just don’t go overboard. So there is a little info on what i know about natural sugars.
