The Role of Sugar in Nutrition and Health

Philsugin Press Release.  1955.  Sugar’s role in nutrition is unique and significant. Sugar serves a dual purpose: besides being an energy food in its purest form it makes so many other good things taste better, also it raises your blood sugar level thus prevents you from overeating. Chemical or artificial sweeteners, which do not raises your blood sugar level cannot therefore be expected to regulate or control your appetite for other higher calorie foods.
