The Secret Government Foundation That Infected Our Food Supply

…and made it nearly impossible for anyone to lose weight and keep it off!


For a long, long time dietary fat was made out to be a bad guy.

A murder in fact.  People everywhere listened and watched as doctors, researchers, and scientists all came together and lambasted fat as the number one killer of Americans.

They claimed dietary fat would raise cholesterol…

Increase the risk for heart disease…

Most certainly would lead to DEATH if you continued to consume fat in your diet.

And while everyone had their attention turned to fat and what fat could do to their body—and their hearts—the snake started making its way into your garden.

That snake just happens to be SUGAR.

Now, everyone knows just how bad sugar can be for your body…your heart heath…and your waistline…

…but back in the 1960s, people just didn’t know what to believe.

Think about it for a moment…

If you are seeing your relatives dropping left and right due to heart disease…and someone is telling you that FAT is the reason why they are dropping like flies…

You’re probably going to listen, righ

Absolutely.   And that’s precisely what happened.   

So why did it happen?  Well, that’s a story in itself (according to a new study)…

The Rise of the Sugar Research Foundation

Back in the 1960s, the sugar industry had its own research foundation—called the Sugar Research Foundation.  And this foundation wanted to “prove” that sugar was not the cause for heart disease…

…but that fat was.  In fact, some studies at that time on sugar showed some pretty devastating effects.

But with each study that showed sugar to be dangerous, the Sugar Research Foundation was there to refute these claims.

In order to refute the role sugar may play in heart disease, they recruited researchers from Harvard to conduct a study that showed the studies on sugar were incorrect.

And it was published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine.  Now, why is this important?

Having a study published in such a prestigious journal helped to direct the overall discussion away from the dangers of sugar and focus more of the attention on the harmful effects of fat.

The new study shows that the sugar industry plays a very large role in trying to influence scientific data and make the case that sugar is good for you.

Here’s something else to consider…

In some back room, surrounded by many high-powered men (and possibly women) the head of the Sugar Research Foundation claimed that if people followed a low-fat diet (which many people did), then the fat would have to be replaced with sugar, which would increase sugar intake by one-third.

That happened in 1954.  But in the 60s, the sugar industry started to see more and more reports showing that sugar was a less desirable form of calories and that carbohydrates was a more nutritionally sound food.

Sounds fishy doesn’t it?

Not only are you being told that dietary fat will give you a heart attack (which has since been changed)…

…you’re being told that eating more sugar (even though reports showed it was bad for you) is better for you with no adverse reactions to your body.

(It’s hard to believe that this could have happened, but this new study shows it did!)

Now, we all now know that fat is not the culprit when it comes to heart disease—inflammation is.

And what food causes inflammation?  Sugar does.   

So what was the sugar industry and the Sugar Research Foundation worried about?

You’d be surprised…

The Dangers of Sugar (beware)

There are a lot of things you need to be concerned about when it comes to increasing your sugar intake.

And even though the sugar industry wants to paint a pretty picture about sugar…

…there is nothing pretty about this dangerous nutrient.  In fact, here are just some of the dangerous effects you could see by consuming too much sugar:

• Sugar has been linked to an increased risk for heart disease and dying from a heart attack.
• Sugar (especially fructose) has been linked to an increase in body fat and fat around your belly.
• Sugar increases your risk for Type 2 Diabetes.
• It has been linked to the development of certain cancers and too much may actually reduce the survival rate of cancer survivors.
• Sugar may reduce your brain power.
• Sugar may be deadly to your liver
• And so much more.

The Bottom Line…

If you want to improve your health, cut down on your risk for heart disease, or even shed a few pounds, then you need to cut back on your sugar intake.

It’s been shown that the average person consumes nearly 150 to 170 pounds of sugar per year—and that number is posed to increase.

That’s why it’s important to cut back on your intake of sugar by reducing your intake of sugar-sweetened beverages, pre-packaged desserts, and adding sugar to your coffee or tea.

Making these simple changes could go a long way to improving your health, shedding the excess belly fat, and healing your body from the inside out.

But you must be careful…

There are a lot of different ways to cut down on your sugar intake.  But face it: it’s nearly impossible to cut sugar completely out of your diet.

We have the solution for you on the next page.  You may be able to cut down on your dangerously high blood sugar levels (from all the sugar you've been eating), with the right mix of nutrients on your side...

You’re also going to be able to accelerate your metabolism…burn excess belly fat…and cut your sugar cravings significantly!   Want to find out more?
