Alhumdulilah Ramzan is coming closer. It is easier to control our urges in Ramzan. If the whole nation or just people in big cities like karachi and Lahore decide that we will not eat sugar during Ramzan it will create an impact on the sugar mafia. Sugar is not a necessity. The body need for sweet can be replaced with fruits, dates and other substitute. My family do not eat sugar for weeks and we see a lot of health benefits. It is so sad that our nation is being penalized by a mafia for something that is not even a basic necessity rather it is harmful to humans. If we stop buying sugar for a month it will be like fight of the nation against mafia. They sell sugar at higher price because they know there are buyers who will pay for it.
Let's do a roza of sugar during Ramzan

Sugar is not good for health.
Quran reminds us to use dates, grapes, honey, and not sugar.
All these products contain antioxidants and are anti-cancerous and anti covid.

یوکے کی حکومت نے شوگر ٹیکس لگایا تھا - جس سے شوگر کے استمال پر کافی اچھا اثر پڑا
میرے خیال میں حکومت پاکستان کو شوگر مافیا سے بھی لڑنا چاہیے
لیکن ساتھ ساتھ اس طرح کے اقدامات کر کے
شوگر مافیا کے پر کاٹنے چاہییں

Not just ramzan, should be doing this all the time. Best thing I did after quitting smoking is cutting down on sugar. I only have dessert once a week (and on eids/birthdays) and have replaced sugary treats with fruit.
Bread is a hard one for me to give up, but whole meal is better then white bread

In 1950s confectionery industry of US intentionally stigmatised cholesterol and fat worldwide so as to get away with white poison called sugar ..... since it’s addictive.....
There is not even a single benefit of sugar ...... just as poison ......
I hope sugar rises to 1000 Rs a kg so that whatever is made of it becomes extremely expensive.......
Very well said Threadstarter.......
Kudos to you for preaching what our useless anchors should have done .....

There are so many harmful effects of refined sugar. We get enough sugar from fruits
Gurr is better substitue if fruits are out of reach.
