I stopped eating sugar three years ago last October. It wasn't easy because most processed foods have sugar as a major ingredient. I quit because an annual VA checkup said I was borderline diabetic- it turned out that the A1C numbers for that had been adjusted since my previous checkup.
It still motivated me to drop sugar/honey/maple syrup/allofit. My weight dropped from 160-165 to 148-150 in about 3 months. Rock steady since. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/may/22/eliminating-ultra-processed-foods-pros-cons #https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNr71oGoZC8
This is the same Bible that condones slavery.
"Religious traditionalists, particularly those among the Southern Baptist Convention, also opposed the federal government’s support for equality, although they got less press in the early years of that expansion. In their view, the Bible laid out hierarchical social arrangements, especially patriarchy. Government defense of women’s equality was a direct assault on their worldview." https://open.substack.com/pub/heathercoxrichardson/p/may-16-2024?r=63j6s&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email #MAGA#CivilRights#14thAmendment
