An umbrella review is a review of reviews of reviews, which really amounts to a whole lotta simple regurgitation, as nothing new is really generated in the way of findings, outside of a potentially new understanding of the relative strength of prior findings.

Anyone can look at a single study on its own, and profit—especially if the suggested course of action is relatively innocuous to try.

That said, nothing positive was found for added sugar intake and the unfortunate level of concern was just six teaspoons a day.

In sum, go lower carb, if you don’t want added sugar health issues.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20 - 25% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

Six teaspoons a day? That’s barely one glass of sweet tea.

If everyone is starving because of fertilizer shortages, I doubt that anyone will care about this.

This sounds like a study from the institute of substitute sugar.

They are basically saying to have no more than 1/3 a can of pop/day. You get more sugar in an apple than that.

I think the conclusion is screw the study and just concentrate on having the best diet overall.

I eat lots of sugar.

I have had any medical treatment from a medical doctor in over 20 years.

Carbonation can cause food to break apart faster in the stomach.

It’s not just sugar that leads to obesity.

“In sum, go lower carb, if you don’t want added sugar health issues.”

Agree, and one thing to consider - that ALL carbs turn into sugar in the human body, and that change is very quick for most carbs, including bread, potatoes, and noodles.

For the 80% of the country that needs to worry about weight and/or blood glucose, simply think of carbs as poison.

When a headline reads, “Experts,” the warning bells go off and I take whatever comes next with a grain of salt.
