Sugar leads to inflammation, blood acidification, and bone demineralization.
Without sugar, there is no acidification or demineralization.
When the blood is less sweet, or more acidic:
This prevents inflammation, blood acidification, and bone demineralization.
High sugar:
Serves as a direct food source for fungi and bacteria and weakens the immune system.
Acidification:
Combined with sugar, inflammation and microorganisms produce acids that disrupt the blood's pH balance.
Because sugar serves as fuel for invaders:High blood sugar (hyperglycemia) opens the "gate."Many pathogens, particularly the fungus Candida albicans, grow exponentially faster at high glucose levels.
Process:
Bacteria and fungi eat the sugars in food and convert them into acids.
The "good" bacteria have consumed all the available sugars (there is no more food for fungi).
The bacteria have made the environment so acidic that even fungi (which can tolerate a certain amount of acid) are inhibited in their growth.
Some bacteria can produce natural antibiotics (bacteriocins) that kill harmful invaders.
Protection:
The combination of a low pH (acid) and the lack of sugars prevents unwanted fungi and bacteria from surviving.
In addition, high sugar levels weaken the white blood cells (neutrophils), making the immune system less effective in responding to inflammation.
Bone breakdown:
To neutralize these acids, the body mobilizes alkaline minerals (calcium) from the bones.
Conclusion:
High blood sugar can lead to bone weakening through inflammation and acidification.
