Sugar Toxicity – A Silent Epidemic

by David Edwards MD and Jean Malik MD

Think you know everything about the perils of eating sugar and carbs?

Maybe, not.

Edwards and Malik are concerned about the unfolding pathology that is devastating to our circulation by our current dietary laissez-faire of eating limitless sugar. While the medical community focuses on the dire consequences of cholesterol, it ignores the far more serous risks of the metabolic syndrome. An elevated glucose is concerning and an elevated hemoglobin-a1c is even more so. For Edwards and Malik, a hemoglobin-a1c of 6.4 should cause alarm.

Edwards and Malik present the horror story of micro-vascular atherosclerosis. This is not the plaque that you can see on angiography or by tomography. This is the stiffening of capillaries that really can’t be measured. When the micro-circulation develops a “sugar glaze” in the endothelium, circulation comes to a standstill. This is the pathology that brings on the heart attack, the stroke, and the gangrene in the extremities.
