On New Years Day, I overheard my mom mention something called the sugar challenge. The idea behind it is to not eat any extremely sugary foods or drinks along with no artificial sweeteners.

Since fat was condemned as an ingredient thirty years ago, the food industry has removed the fat and replaced it with sugar, the main culprit in the film

The new study in Public Health Nutrition reminds us that in developing countries, sugar intake continues to rise. Therefore, the developing world needs policies that limit added sugars, hopefully before the train leaves the station.
