This is the same thing UCSF Professor, Dr. Robert Lustig, says in his presentation, "Sugar: The Bitter Truth" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM).
There is also a New York Times article on this entitled "Is Sugar Toxic?" (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/17/magazine/mag-17Sugar-t.html?pagewanted=all http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/17/magazine/mag-17Sugar-t.htm...).

- ciupicri 15y agoAccording to that presentation sugar is toxic, but remember that the quantity matters, too. Alcohol is toxic as well, but a glass of wine won't kill anyone, whereas a barrel might put you in a coma.
