Refine Not Reject: The Complexity of Sugar in Diet

High carbohydrate and sugar diets can lead to significant improvements in liver fat content, suggesting the physiological effects of sugar intake are more nuanced than commonly understood. While added sugars pose dental health risks independent of caloric intake, not all sugar-containing foods are detrimental to overall health. The argument that all sugar must be eliminated oversimplifies the issue, failing to acknowledge that all carbohydrates convert to sugar in the body. Instead of categorically rejecting sugar, a more effective approach is to evaluate foods based on their health effects and potential replacements in the diet.
