Simply eat proper fruit and vegetables instead of processed foods,it takes a few months to get used too it,but it's worth it.

@heartlessvietboy Because we as adults cannot decide what we want to do to our bodies?I don't want the government telling me what to do with my life, do you?

not conclusive?? wtf? oo oo why is my teeth going bad? both sugar and tobacco use der!! now what can i eat that does something to the sugar count? I have ibs...and that corn sugar is bad too, y /cause we don't digest corn well whatever the form. sugar is sugar your body can't tell d difference is b.s...Your body knows and doesn't care...thats like saying im white when im mixed...when everyone still see's u as blk. or its a pet snake...it still a snake that bites if u don't watch it.
