But wait!..go back to that part about Sugar hiding the virus from antibodies. Seems this might be important for vaccine efficacy, differences in recovery, etc. However, it is a long complicated article with some amazing photos but that sugar shield idea is not elaborated upon.

Funny that it always seems like sugar is involved when metabolic health is at risk. Given that many understand sugar to be represented in diet by sucrose and fructose, the process of raising blood glucose by carb consumption outside of sugars is often overlooked and not clearly understood by many. So, to many, I can eat a pizza and refuse dessert thinking I've eliminated unhealthy sugars? And, what possibly important role does sugar play in virus replication? Lots to unravel here. At least the conversation has started.
