Abstract

Health fads come and go, and in the recent past our food enemies have included fat, eggs, and gluten. In today’s health news, sugar has become a very controversial topic. High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) has become the new enemy. In addition, there seems to be an assumption that ‘real sugar’ or ‘natural sugar’ is somehow healthier. It’s not. It is still sugar.
