Beyond the Dentist - Stuff You Didn’t Know About Sugar

 

Dr. Nancy Appleton has spent some thirty years educating families about the dangers of sugar. She calls it suicide by sugar. She’s not alone in calling the white stuff addictive, and details how it works and why it’s bad for you on her site, www.nancyappleton.com.

 

One of her most amazing features is “The List.” It’s a list mothers and fathers pass around to teachers and babysitters. It’s a list that has shown up in various forms all over the Internet. That list is called 141 Reasons Sugar Ruins Your Health. 141? No, she’s kidding. It’s 143 and climbing.
