Eating Fast Food Can Be A Fast Track To Type 2 Diabetes

Not picking on McDonalds here per se, but happened to stop there on a 1/2 hour lunch break today. On the one hand you have to give McDonalds credit for posting the nutritional value of their food and drinks. On the other hand if you are already a diabetic,  or do not want to become one, you can pretty much skip most of the desert menu and the McCAFE portion of the menu.

McFlurry with M&M candies (8 fl. oz. cup)............59 grams of sugar/ 16 oz cup (128) grams sugar
Strawberry McCafe shake 16 oz cup ................100 grams of sugar
Vanilla McCafe shake 16 oz cup     .....................87 grams of sugar    

BEST deal in the desert arena is (1) apple pie with cinnamon - they are always TWO for a dollar so just buy ONE....................................................................13 grams of sugar for (1) at least it has cinnamon

Strawberry banana smoothie with yogurt  .............54 grams of sugar
Frozen strawberry lemonade.................................67 grams of sugar

Keep in mind that these are the items kids (AND ADULTS) crave after eating their cheeseburger and fries and a regular coke..

Regular coke 16 oz cup........................................40 grams of sugar

Let's say you stopped for a treat on your way home from work. You decide to have a regular 16 oz coke and the small 8 oz McFlurry with M&M candies. Hey, what is wrong with that? Absolutely nothing if you think your system can handle 99 grams of sugar just before dinner. I haven't even mentioned the damage the 16 oz coke is going to do to the PH of your Interstitial Fluid.

You have now thrown your body into an acidic state and dumped 99 grams of sugar into your system at the same time. To find out why you DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT, see below:

The 10 Most Healing Bible Verses Exodus 15:26


He said, "If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and give heed to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will not bring upon you any of the diseases that I brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you."
