Is Sugar Actually Bad For You?

☠️ IS SUGAR ACTUALLY BAD FOR YOU ☠️ 

It’s the holiday season and with that comes lots of delicious high sugar treats but will this high intake of sugar actually harm you? let’s take a look at what the most prestigious health journals say.....

First let’s start with The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2020 study on prolonged very high dose fructose, for 8 weeks.

“Ingestion of high dose fructose for 8wk WAS NOT associated with relevant metabolic consequences in the presence of stable energy intake.” 

Now let’s see what the 2016 systematic review and meta analysis on sugar and obesity, from The European Journal of Nutrition concluded. 

“The highest level of evidence from systematic reviews and meta analysis of controlled trails HAS NOT shown that fructose containing sugar behave any different from other forms of digestible carbohydrates. Fructose containing sugar CAN ONLY lead to weight gain and other unintended harm on cardiometabolic risk factors IN THE EXCESS OF calories.”
