As far as I have heard >the only harm eating sugar has is an increase in dental caries. > >What else does sugar do to give it such a bad reputation. One who makes comments such as the above desperately needs some information about sugar, and not from the sugar industry or its apologists. One of the best references is "Sweet and Dangerous" by Dr. John Yudkin Ph.D.. This book is available at most larger bookstores, and contains its own bibliography. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX ...!tektronix!reed!omen!caf CIS:70715,131 Omen Technology Inc 17505-V NW Sauvie Island Road Portland OR 97231 Voice: 503-621-3406 Modem: 503-621-3746 (Hit CR's for speed detect) Home of Professional-YAM, the most powerful COMM program for the IBM PC
