Is dishonest. In general parlance "sugar" refers to sucrose. Sucrose is a glucose bonded to a fructose.
Our bodies need glucose to live.
However they do not need fructose.
- nicholas73 13y agoI've even heard a university nutritionist make the claim that sugar is just glucose. Some days I feel stupid; others, I feel other people are more stupid.
- donaldc 13y agoThat line alone cost the article much of its credibility in my book. A scientific article should not lump all sugars together as metabolically equivalent.
