Sugar is one of the most misunderstood parts of nutrition. Some call it poison. Others shrug it off as harmless. The truth is more nuanced. In this episode of Real World Nutrition, we explore the nature of sugar, its role in the body, the distinction between natural and added sugars, and why the quantity is more significant than cutting it out completely. Also covered are recommendations from major health organizations, common myths, the many names sugar hides under, and why nutrition is rarely black or white.
