Does eating lots of sugar lead to diabetes?.

Question:

Answers:
yes it can,

too much sugar consumed > insulin released

what happens is insulin binds with the sugar that you consume, if you eat too much sugar and there is not enough insulin produced, the sugar will end up in your blood and into the tissues and will be metabolized in this area. the end product is called "ketone" and this will travel through the blood, and to the kidneys, resulting in renal failure among diabetic patients if they don't watch their intake.

if this process is repeated over and over -- then the risk for diabetes is really high, wherein your body may not produce insulin anymore so you have to take insulin shots for that.

Health concerns

Whereas rotting teeth once seemed the most prominent health hazard from the use of sugar, first the growth in the usage of rum (a sugar-cane derivative) and then the predominance of conerns about diabetes and obesity have gradually come to prominence.

In 2003, four U.N. agencies, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), commissioned a report compiled by a panel of 30 international experts. It stated that sugar should not account for more than 10% of a healthy diet. However, the Sugar Association[1] of the US insists that other evidence indicates that a quarter of our food and drink intake can safely consist of sugar.

Argument continues as to the value of extrinsic sugar (sugar added to food) compared to that of intrinsic sugar (sugar, seldom sucrose, naturally present in food). The primary benefits of added sugar is usually taste, and the primary drawback is the additional calories.

In the United States, some commentators have identified sugar as a leading cause of obesity.[citation needed]

YES Yes! especially if it runs in your family!
