摘要
Dietary sugar has, for a long time, been pointed to as a cause of ill health, but not without controversy. Attention on sugar has heightened recently, partly in response to revisions of dietary guidelines on added sugar intake. There is now a substantial body of credible evidence that high added sugar intakes are detrimental for body weight and cardiometabolic health. Recommendations aiming to further reduce added sugar intakes are justified, however a range of public health action is needed to enable consumers to achieve this. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
