Why this topic important
•Too much sugar in the diet can be dangerous. •Not knowing what items or foods that are high in sugar can put you at an increased risk since you may eat or drink a high sugar item and not be aware of it. •Sugar can be hidden in the item, but not from the label.

Sugar and the Body
•Sugar can be called ‘empty calories.’ There are no vitamins, minerals, proteins or essential fats in sugar.•It is pure energy or carbohydrates. In the blood stream, sugar is broken down into simpler sugars. It can be stored or turned into fat when in excess. This is where problems occur.
