Humans are not capable of synthesising our own sugar. We obtain it from plants
Our bodies can however convert more complex forms like starch or other carbohydrates from plants to sugar in our bodies.

To make sugar ( or syrup) from sugar beets.
Grow sugar beets from seed planted in March for a September crop
Pull up the beets.
Scrub and peel them.
Grate and cover with water
Boil for 1 hour
Strain the water from the beets pressing to get out as much juice as possible.
Ten strain again through a jelly bag to remove all the impurities.
Concentrate that syrup down by gently heating - don't heat to hot - or you get caramel
Reduce to a thin syrup (like maple syrup)
Whisk to get it very frothy.
Leave overnight
Skim off the thick layer of foam onto sheets of dehydrator
Dry to form rock sugar
This can be pounded into a powder.
A factory uses a centrifuge to get the sugar crystals (as is sold in shops) to drop out of the sugar syrup.
