I looked up the effects of sugar on health. I discovered that glucose and vitamin C have similar chemical structures. Therefore, they compete with each other when entering cells. If there is more sugar around, the less vitamin C is allowed to enter.
Faith and fear compete for the same ’space.’ too. I wonder how similar it is. I am all set to go at both enemies. I think it is wonderful how religion and science support each other! The more I understand one, the more I understand the other.
I liked the way this website: www.healingdaily.com, explained things. I want to know more. I also like the way the scriptures explain things. I want to know more!

Wow, that’s a really neat analogy! Vitamin C is so important, too. Lately I’ve been realizing more and more how big of a difference it makes to have faith instead of fear. I’ve noticed more clearly that when I am feeling fear, I feel yucky, and when I am having faith, I feel really good and happy!
You are certainly a good writer!
Glad to see you posting again

I was happy to see new posts too. Both of your latest are very good. I like learning more too. I love to learn more about nutrition, the benefits of certain vitamins, etc. and what vitamins and minerals are in certain foods. I’m thankful too for the Gospel and all the teachings of the Church. Thanks for writing again !! I had missed it. Barbs
