About the Book:
In Pure, White and Deadly, Dr. John Yudkin, a pioneering nutritionist, and Dr. Robert H. Lustig, a leading expert on sugar and its effects on the body, expose the dangerous impact of sugar on our health. Originally published in 1972, this groundbreaking book has been updated with new insights and research, revealing how sugar has become one of the most harmful substances in modern diets.
Yudkin and Lustig argue that sugar is not just a simple sweetener but a deadly poison that contributes to a wide range of chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. By connecting the dots between sugar consumption and health crises, they shed light on how this pervasive ingredient has been misrepresented and downplayed by the food industry and medical professionals.
Here’s a startling excerpt from the book:
"Sugar is not just the sweet substance we add to our tea or coffee; it’s a deadly toxin that affects every system in our body, and it’s time we face the truth about its impact on our health."
