And tell me which food that its endpoint is not sugar? Even water.

It's not same for everyone. I know of a friend who takes at least 2bottles of beer every evening yet healthy. The problem is more than what we think of it.

All diabetics love to say this, always lying to Doctors grin

Unless you have Type 1 or Gestational Diabetes then yes, you were eating sugar. Seems like people are forgetting that yam, cassava, bread, flour are types of sugars.

whats bmi?

BMI is body mass index.

It is the ratio of your weight in Kilograms to the square of your height in metres.

If you weigh 80kg for example and your height is 1.6 metres, then your BMI is 80/(1.6x1.6) = 31.25

In general, the following BMI ranges (in kg/m2) classify different weight types:

Underweight: Less than 18.5.
Optimum range: 18.5 to 24.9.
Overweight: 25 to 29.9.
Class I obesity: 30 to 34.9.
Class II obesity: 35 to 39.9.
Class III obesity: More than 40.
If you have a BMI less than 18.5 (underweight), you may be at higher risk for developing the following conditions:

Malnutrition.
Anemia.
Weakened immune system, which could lead to more frequent infections and illnesses.
Osteoporosis.
Infertility.
If you have underweight, your healthcare provider will likely order certain blood tests and other tests to check your overall health and to see if you’re malnourished.

In general, the higher your BMI, the higher your risk for the following conditions:

Heart disease.
High blood pressure (hypertension).
Type 2 diabetes.
Gallstones.
Osteoarthritis.
Sleep apnea.
Certain cancers, including colon, breast, endometrial and gallbladder.
Depression and other mental health conditions

I thought it was fasting that caused your malnourishment.

Anyway, I stopped giving money to Nigerian beggars since 2015. Since millions of Nigerians believed that a school certificate holder, who did not even know the whereabout of his secondary school certificate, was better than a PHD holder in being president of the country, I just give up on Nigerians.

Sorry, try someone else who has not given up on Nigerians.

You can't know or say he is healthy.

Have you checked the condition of his liver.

And even if his liver is ok today, how do you know what his liver will look like in a few years.
