Type of carbohydrate
1- Simple Carbohydrates (Monosaccharides and Disaccharides) Simple Sugars
2- Complex Carbohydrates(Polysaccharides)

Toxic Effects of Simple Sugars
May accelerate the Aging Process by causing Cross-Linking (glycosylation) of the body’s Proteins.
 May increase the body’s production of Adrenaline.
May increase the risk of Hypertension due to Cross-Linking.
– May damage the Blood Vessels  due to Cross-Linking.
May exacerbate Irritable Bowel Syndrome (by reducing the buffering effect of Polysaccharides).
May cause Intestinal Permeability.
May damage the Kidneys due to Cross-Linking.
–  May feed Cancer cells and increase risk of Colon Cancer and Stomach Cancer.
May increase the risk of Cataracts.
 May suppress the Immune System ( impair the ability of Neutrophils to function as Phagocytes).
May feed the detrimental bacteria Candida Albicans (yeast)
– May contributes to excessive production of endogenous Cholesterol and lower the HDL Cholesterol, also Simple Sugars are converted to Triglycerides
and then stored within the body as Adipose Tissue (Fat)..
 May cause Obesity.
May causeFatigue.
May stimulate the production ofFree Radicals.
– may increase the risk of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2.
May increase the risk of Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS).
May cause damage to the Skin and may increase the formation of Wrinkles due to Cross-Linking of the Collagen.

Excessive Consumption of Simple Sugars may Interfere with;

– May cause depletion of mineral Magnesium and Potassium.
May cause depletion of Vitamins C and vitamin B6.

Dietary Simple Sugars 
– Soft Drinks content of 33% (Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose).
– Fruit Drink content of 10% (Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose).
– Sweets and Candy content of 18% (Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose).
– Sweetened Grains content of 20% (Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose).
– Milk Products content of 10% (Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose).
