Do you guys think sugar are really poison?

Question

Many people are afraid to consume sugary desserts and cakes today, do you think it is normal to be so afraid or do you think that diabetes is genetic?

If someone had a bad experience with sweets and desserts I could understand. But most people who have a food fear usually either: 1. Suffer from an eating disorder, 2. Too health conscious (possibly due to a health condition). But I think we shouldn't have any added sugars in food, it's unnecessary. Of course, lots of the things I love tend to have lots of sugar in them anyway. But I tend to forget about how much sugar it has once it goes into my mouth, since it tastes good!

I thinks it’s bad to over indulge in anything. My family is prone to being diabetic. I don’t have it. (Hopefully I won’t ever) I love sweets and people always have something to say about food. For example (trans fats, broccoli, meats etc.) moderation is key. I don’t think people should demonize food.

There are many kinds of "sugar", which is shorthand for carbohydrate.
To humans:
Sucrose- yes (inflammatory and causes the liver to dump ldl cholesterol into one's blood stream)
Refined grains- yes (those same effects as sucrose)
Refined fructose- yes (those same effects as above)
Pure glucose- no (less inflammatory, has none of those liver effects and is the human body's preferred form of energy)

Its not poison, but everything contains way too much sugar. And too much of anything isn't healthy.

It’s not poison, just shouldn’t consume so much, our bodies can’t handle so much of it in large quantities, it turns into fat which is why people with a weight problem tend to have diabetes but some are genetically prone to it

The correlation between obesity and diabetes is long known and well-documented. Diabetes is a disease typical of (post)-industrial societies.
