Health News as Source for Laughs by Dr. Donald A. Miller

But representatives of the sugar and soft drinks industries

maintain that overeating and lack of exercise, not a

particular food or beverage, are causing America's obesity.

Item: My article, "High Energy Food Illustrations", shows

that sugar, fat, alcohol are concentrated energy sources

which can support fire. Restrict their intake and you help

your calorie balance.

Item: Such sources as the American Medical Association show

that sugar enriched foods and beverages correlate with risk

of diabetes, as well as risk of obesity.

Item: My diet book noted that some young people being

treated with Ritalin[tm] for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity

Disorder (ADHD) were able to flush their drugs when they

removed refined sugars from their diets. (I knew one such

youth.) I also noted that average USA consumption of refined

sugars and artificial sweeteners is now about 25 times the

per capita consumption of the early 1900s. Use of the three

major artificial sweeteners is no magic cure, because they

can cause the symptoms of several serious diseases.

So, should we take the advice of the sugar-foods and soft

drinks industries?

As reporter John Stossel would say, "Give Me a Break".
