I know its a bit overstated maybe but it got me thinking. (I admit thats dangerous!)
Well there is a growing drive in the WHO to make sugar a controlled substance in the food industry.
For years food companies have been restricted by the World Health Organization in terms of preservatives now allowed (lot less synthetic E numbers floating around now available in food manufacturing coz found to be class II carcinagens etc).
Of course, over the years (last 20) with advent of large scale supermarkets/hypermarts/malls the food industry has evolved its food to the modern consumer using flashy packaging and branding like NO PRESERVATIVES etc.
This is true but they aren't telling that various sugar types are the replacement (don't have to coz not regulated) which is heavily linked with obesity, diabetes and onsets of certain cancers!
So its a link step in the process that the World Health Organization wants regulation on to control a substance medical experts feel is highly infused into many common health problems...
So maybe they'll get what they want or be wasted in a pile of legal litany for years from the food industry who need it to keep their sales as high as possible.
All i say is "there are a lot more fat kids these days than i remember when i was a kid!"
