I recently read an article from a heart doctor that essentially said heart disease is caused by inflammation in the body. This inflammation causes cholesterol to build up...which of course eventually leads to blockage or clots.
He said that the causes for inflammation are the overloading of highly processed carbohydrates (sugar, flour and the products made from them).
Note the word overload. Moderation is key...cutting it out completely is nonsense and, given that damn near everything has sugar in it, practically impossible. Eat a sensible diet, don't go overboard on the sweets/sodas, exercise regularly and you will be ok.
Be a nutcase and cut it out completely...probably binge within a few months and land back at square 1.
