Apparently, refined sugar elevates LDL (bad cholesterol), reduces HDL (good cholesterol), contributes to mild memory loss, increases overall cholesterol and increases systolic blood pressure. See items 7, 41, 42, 57 and 130 in http://www.rheumatic.org/sugar.htm .
Should we throw away the sugar bowl and stop eating cakes, cookies, biscuits, desserts, chocolate, icecream and so on, which would also help to lose weight (if you are overweight), or should we just shrug it off and forget about it?
