We have all talked to our patients about the need to reduce their sugar consumption, and although there are sugar substitutes and lots of evidence why sugar should be reduced, our consumption has continued to increase.

Our focus has always been on diabetes and weight gain as reasons to reduce sugar consumption, but now the AHA has taken a stand on reducing sugar for a totally different reason.
