As we grow older our bodies tell us clues that we do not need to consume sugar in large quantities.

More frequent urination is a sign of your body trying to rid of excessive sugar which is also a marker for pre diabetes being a possibility.

Bottom line is that we do not need a lot of sugar in our diets as we grow older. Most of the elder people I know that live long lives rely on protein (eg chicken), fiber, and fats from chicken and pork to round out their diet with one large meal being their early supper (eg 4-5 PM) and smaller breakfasts and lunches with tiny snacks.
