I'm not a doctor or dietician, so take this advice with a grain 
of,.......um,....sugar.
 
Sugars are carbohydrates and the body's first source of fuel. It's impossible 
to cut out all sugars because many occur naturally in fruits and vegetables. 
I'll assume you're talking about added sugars, such as cane sugar and corn 
syrup, because that's where we all start to get into trouble. As you know, soda 
pop is probably the biggest culprit, but corn sweetener is added to almost 
everything these days.
 
Before you cut all sugars out of your diet you may want to study up on simple 
sugars vs complex sugars (carbs.) Simply put, the complex carbs are much better 
for you because they release their energy over a greater time period and your 
blood sugar doesn't spike. Things like whole grains, nuts and veggies have 
complex carbs.
 
Your brain requires a huge amount of energy to function properly, consuming 
approximately 20% of your energy burned in one day. It is a glucose loving 
machine, so don't cut out all carbs.
 
Finally, not all sugars are bad for your bladder and/or sores. The sugar D. 
Mannose is not digested by the body and is removed via urine. This is the sugar 
that makes cranberry juice effective against UTIs. The D.Mannose sugar 
molecules pass through the urinary tract like little velcro footballs; bad 
bacteria latch on and are carried out in the urine.D Mannose can be purchased 
online or at some vitamin stores and can be added to foods. 
 
Consult your doctor or dietician before doing anything drastic in your dietary 
intake.
 
Happy eating!
Don.

Sugars, feed bacteria.  Infections feed on sugars.  (sugars are 
empty calories too)

      does it do that anymore.?
