Re: U.N. Urges Sugar Limit for Healthier Living
Different version of the story from another source: http://abcnews.go.com/wire/Living/ap20030303_133.html
This part really makes me mad:
Quote:
The U.S. National Soft Drink Association said that a 10 percent limit on sugar should not be part of the plan.
"A thorough review of scientific literature on the subject of obesity shows there is no association between sugar consumption and obesity," said Richard Adamson, the association's vice president of scientific and technical affairs.

Can you believe this?!? Sounds just like the tobacco industry insisting that cigarettes don't cause cancer! |
