Sugar is in everything people consume. It's crazy. And it doesn't even seem to have limits.

Check soft drinks
46 grams or 38 grams per drink.

Fed Up is a documentary on the industry on Prime.

YouTube - 4:30 min 100 billion dollar industry

quote:

According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are ( 7 ): Men: 150 calories per day (37.5 grams or 9 teaspoons) Women: 100 calories per day (25 grams or 6 teaspoons)

The problem is an increasingly sedentary and convenience based society. If more people moved their asses more and took the time to prepare real foods instead of buying all the processed, boxed and frozen foods, things wouldn’t be so bad.

Yet sugar consumption is down over the last decade and obesity rates is still rising.

Sugar doesn't make you fat, eating too many calories makes you fat. Quit trying to pass blame.

You need to read up.

I'm a runner so this isn't about me. It's about the public being served copious amounts of sugar for no reason other than for the sugar industry to grow and addict.

As a sugarcane farmer, I have to say that you need to get your facts straight.


Sugars are sweeteners but not all sweeteners are sugars.
HFCS is a sweetener, not a sugar

People are actually consuming less sugar now than in the 70’s.
However, they are consuming three times the amount of sweeteners than in the 70’s. HFCS being the primary culprit.

Sugar has been around for a very long time. This obesity epidemic is recent. Higher caloric consumption and lack of physical exercise is killing this country.

Buddy, the sugar industry wishes people knew what was in their food.

The public would realize how bad other sweeteners really are and turn back to traditional sugar.

Look at Coke, Zero sugar ... aspartame. Traditional coke, HFCS.
Diet Coke, not sugar.

All sweeteners, not sugars.
