From the best-selling author of Why We Get Fat, a groundbreaking, eye-opening exposé that makes the convincing case that sugar is the tobacco of the new millennium: backed by powerful lobbies, entrenched in our lives, and making us very sick.

Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10% of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss; and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.

I was looking for a ketogenic diet centric book when I found ‘the case against sugar’ and I am glad I did. The book is a thorough study in the history of sugar and how it affects us now. In my humble opinion this book should be a part of high school curriculum. #Audible1

Lots of good information but almost overwhelming.
Unfortunately the book reads like a CBC news report. I found myself loosing interest after 1/2 of listening. So I had to break it up.

Very informative

Was always interested in understanding more of the history of the diet and there is considerable overlap with why Atkins diets, low garb diet, low sugar diets, and other extreme diets faired better than The conventional North American / Western diet.

Also, considerable overlap with what others have stated ie Dr Pradip Jamnadas, Dr Jason Fung and what others continue to advocate for online.

A must read!

Compelling, give it a "read". Some very decent facts. So yeah. Yeah. Words. Words. Words.

Decent

I very much enjoyed this book. The way the history of sugar from the social, political and business perspectives was laid out, as well as the pit-falls of the scientific method used to evaluate it were surprising. I like the way the author thinks, he's skeptical, and articulates his arguments clearly. Ive learned a lot from. This book. Things I sort of already knew but it will certainly change my lifestyle.

I've drunk the sugar free Kool-Aid
