具體描述
From the best-selling author of Why We Get Fat, a groundbreaking, eye-opening exposé that makes the convincing case that sugar is the tobacco of the new millennium: backed by powerful lobbies, entrenched in our lives, and making us very sick.
Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10% of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss; and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.

評分我今年的主题阅读，有两大版块，一个是英文阅读，一个则是养生，当然，养生是重中之重，毕竟，防患于未然才是治疗“未病”的最佳方式。 那天在车上看这本书的时候，手里正拿着一块葡萄干面包啃着，一边看着《不吃糖的理由》，一边津津有味的吃着糖，真真是极大的讽刺啊！ 曾被...
評分我是一个爱吃“糖”系列的人，深深地热爱吃甜品，蛋糕、还有面包，几天不吃就难受。记得10年前在澳大利亚留学的时候，每天早晨都吃白面包配果酱，吃完之后去上学，不到中午就会感觉饿，而且特有眩晕的感觉，不吃东西就抓狂，所以短期内体重暴涨了20斤，而且心情特别差，皮肤也...
評分我因为一个偶然的机会接触低碳，生酮饮食理念后，引起极大的兴趣，一发不可收拾的以自己为实践，并且追逐着李奕博先生创立和耕耘的老虎健康公众号的科普和专业文章，以期深刻理解生酮的方方面面！而得知李奕博编译的《不吃糖的理由》这本书在国内出版发行了，就立即先睹为快！...

一本糖的進化史。理論背景很豐富，寫得卻像是一本小說。如果你還不知道糖的危害，值得一讀。如果你有相關的研究，那就隨便讀讀吧。Sweeping theories, but only partially credible.
