How the Sugar Industry Has Distorted Health Science For More Than 50 Years

Angelica Salazar 1st period 

As the name of the title explains, the sugar industry has been affecting health in the world population for many years. Debate has been taken place upon the idea that sugar affect heart diseases of any kind. It has been globally proven by scientists that high amounts of sugar cause the reason for obesity and tooth decay. Researchers from World Health Organization and different amounts of publishes show this.

Synthesis: This is significant because sugar has been around for such a long time. Back then, sugar was a necessity, and the consequences of its health issues weren't as big of a deal as it is now. Sugar was primarily spread through the Columbian Exchange. The Columbian Exchange spread different materials across through the Atlantic in a somewhat triangular formation, and sugar was in high demand all around.
