A senior Dutch official has called for tighter regulation of sale and consumption of sugar, warning that is the “most dangerous drug of the time”. Sugar causes many disease such as fat deposits in the liver, diabetes, and the increase in risk of heart disease.
Soft drinks and other sugary substances should carry tobacco — style warnings that sugar is highly addictive and dangerous, to consume. There is an important role for the government. The use of sugar should be discouraged. Sugar upsets the mechanism. Whoever consumes sugar wants more and more, even when they are no longer hungry. Give someone eggs and he’ll stop eating at any given time.
