The Most Dangerous Carb Is Not Sugar
from Doctor Next Door Hosted by Doctor Next Door
Highlights modified food starch and maltodextrin as particularly harmful carbohydrates, claiming they spike blood sugar more aggressively than regular sugar. These highly refined industrial starches appear in a wide range of products—from baby formula to gluten-free snacks—often without clear labeling because they are not classified as sugars.According to the source, consuming these ingredients contributes to insulin resistance, fatty liver, systemic inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. The manufacturing process, which uses bleaching agents and harsh chemicals, may further strain the kidneys and blood vessels. When combined with seed oils in ultra-processed foods, these starches allegedly create a toxic mix that promotes chronic disease.Overall, the narrative frames these additives as nutritionally empty and biologically incompatible with the human body, emphasizing that they fail to provide meaningful sustenance despite their widespread use.
