Summary: On today’s episode of The Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast, I have Ms. Jill Escher and Ms. Darlene Kvist as my featured guests. Darlene Kvist In my weekly blog article, “Carbohydrate Addiction”, published on October 24, 2011, I pointed out the potential addiction of carbohydrate foods, especially those of which high in glycemic indices and glycemic loads. Among these foods, sugar is the most dangerous. I have seen many people and their physicians have failed to recognize such disastrous health impact, which is a result of hyperglycemia. These people and their physicians continue to allow the addicts to feed themselves with many carbohydrate foods, especially sugars, for extending the vicious cycle of addiction. When sugar addiction happens in children who have no knowledge about food choice, their parents’ must be equipped with sound judgment in selecting healthy foods for the children. As the traditional Halloween festivity is approaching, we all should be vigilant in preventing ourselves but also our children from suffering with sugar addiction.
