Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10% of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss; and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.From the Hardcover edition. 606 $aSugar-free diet 606 $aSugar 606 $aNutritionally induced diseases 615 0$aSugar-free diet. 615 0$aSugar. 615 0$aNutritionally induced diseases. 676 $a613.2/8332 686 $aHEA017000$aSCI013000$2bisacsh 700 $aTaubes$b Gary$0848402 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154319403321 996 $aThe Case Against Sugar$92895808 997 $aUNINA
