Raw unrefined sugar is not the same as the brown sugar that you see in the store, even though they are both brown. Unrefined raw sugar is made from the juice from the sugar cane plant and has trace minerals and nutrients present. Refined sugar is devoid of all nutrients.

They now sell two types of raw sugar in North America so you need to research your sources. Raw Sugar is what is left after processing the sugar cane to remove the molasses and refine the white sugar. In North America raw sugar is actually not "raw" as it has been partially refined to remove any contaminants. The color is similar to light brown sugar but it's texture is grainier.

What is the difference between sugar and artificial sweetener?

I suggest that you go to www.douglasreport.com. I was told that artificial sweeteners were bad for me by my doctor. I thought, well, if they are bad for me, why did the FDA pass them..this site gave me the answer to to that question. Hope this helps.I have heard That artificial sweeteners can be worse because your body has no need for it and does not know what to do with it. SO your liver has to take time from making energy from stored fats and other things to get rid of the Sweeteners because there is no need for it in your body. This can make losing fat actually harder than just eating regular sugar but regular sugar is still not healthy for you.
