Sugar article in the NYT

Great article by Gary Taubes on sugar: Is Sugar Toxic?

This should be read by everyone interested in their health, and has implications for weight loss, cancer, and many of the chronic diseases we associate with "normal" aging.


The history of the debate over the health effects of sugar has gone on far longer than you might imagine. It is littered with erroneous statements and conclusions because even the supposed authorities had no true understanding of what they were talking about. They didn’t know, quite literally, what they meant by the word “sugar” and therefore what the implications were.
Also read the online Questions & Answers where he responds to reader questions.  Lots of good information in there too.
