Subject: [BEE-L] "Honey may be good - alternative to high-fructose corn
syrup"


The only article I ever wrote which remains unpublished is on the above
subject with also refined sugar and its connection to diabetes added.
My publisher thought ( and I reluctantly agreed) too controversial and
anecdotal for the time period.
Perhaps with further research and people opening their eyes we might publish
in the future.

In 1929, Dr. F.G. Banting, the discover of insulin, delivered a forthright
warning,saying ,"IN THE UNITED STATES THE INCIDENCE OF DIABETES HAS
INCREASED PROPORTIONATELY WITH THE PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION OF CANE SUGAR."

Since then many medical men have expressed their concern over  the
indiscriminate use of refined sugar & corn syrup in the modern diet and have
urged the return to greater use of honey.
