Citando:
"The constant bad news about sugar has suddenly got to me. There are stats showing that sugar consumption is at its highest level in history. The government is trying to get the food industry to cut the amount of sugar in popular products like chocolate bars by 20% by 2020.
I realise that I am the average UK adult, who consumes at least 15 teaspoons of sugar a day. (This may sound a lot, but there are seven teaspoons in just one fizzy drink can.) The World Health Organisation recommends eating just six.
A high-sugar diet is linked to obesity, and being overweight can increase the risk of getting Type 2 diabetes.A 2014 study found that there is a much higher risk of dying from cardiovascular disease among people who get a lot of their calories from added sugar."
