Sugar- 100% empty calories is about 50% fructose and is correlated ton liver disease, fatty liver, gallbladder disease, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, of course high blood sugar, cancer, dementia, lowered immunity, but also seemingly unrelated hormone issues, like PCOS and low Testosterone. I could go on and on but the science speaks for itself and it buries sugar 6 feet under. Yet we are addicted- thanks to the Food Industry and The Sugar Industry.
