I've read in one book about some sugar effects. One of which is that it slows down metabolism. This is the first time I've heard of this effect and I'm quite doubtful about it. Would you know if this was true?

Sugar consumption as risen drastically over the last few years. It is found in almost everthing. It is one of the more harmful ingredients that we use. One can of soda will lower the immunine system for 24 hours and allow you to become very susestable to the flu or colds more easily.
