Columnist Wrongly Claims Sugar is Not the Dietary Villain! Oh, Please! My 5 Years of Research Indicate Otherwise

As I’m on deadline to read galleys for my upcoming book SUGAR SHOCK!, which dishes the dirt on sugar’s many, many dangers, I just had to smile when I came across this totally absurd, highly inaccurate column in an obscure publication (Megayacht and Superyacht Industry News) from a dietitian (Carol Bareuther), who claims — or more like insists — that sugar’s not the "dietary villain" we’ve been led to believe it is.

Excuse me? Ms. Bareuther, how were you able to make this ridiculous conclusion?!!! I’m in shock! (And NOT "SUGAR SHOCK!")

Betcha these mysterious experts you cite didn’t look at as nearly many studies as my researchers and I did, because if they did, they could only come to ONE, irrefutable conclusion — over consumption of sweets and refined carbs (the habit of most Americans) could lead to more than 100 health problems, including hypoglycemia, diabetes, mood swings, heart disease, concentration problems, decreased libido, and a whole lot more.

Phew! At least this R.D. wisely advises "limiting simple sugars such as table sugar, brown sugar and honey."

Well, back to proofing my book SUGAR SHOCK!, which provides all kinds of cutting edge info about sugar’s many perils.
