alt Hacker NewsI bake bread for my family every day because I can't get bread in Canada that has no sugar. I'm aware of how insidious sugar is.
You obviously deal with a lot of obesity that is caused by excessive sugar consumption. Your conclusion - and smuggled assumption - is that all obesity is caused by sugar. This is trivially refuted by finding obese people in non-high-sugar societies, or from a time period before sugar became ubiquitous.
Calling me a liar does not make your position stronger.
Response edit: I have four school aged children who get a sandwich for lunch every day. It takes no time at all for a family of six to go through a 650g loaf of bread, and it doesn't require overeating - I'm the only one in my family with a weight problem, and I bake the bread I don't eat it. Your assumption that everyone in the world is exactly like you is truly breathtaking.

Those people definitely existed, but were pretty rare. Maybe you are one of them. Statistically, probably not.

That is definitely way, way better than anything store bought, so it's great that you are doing that. However, even without added sugar, bread will start converting to sugar immediately after being in contact with saliva(and will continue once the pancreas enters the picture). So you are eating sugar every day still, possibly quite a lot of it.
I had to severely decrease bread consumption, as well as anything containing simple carbs, to decrease my insulin resistance.
