“No scientist has done more in the last fifty years to alert Americans to the potential dangers of sugar in the diet than Dr. Robert Lustig.” –Gary Taubes, author of Good Calories, Bad Calories and Why We Get Fat
I’ve been a follower of Robert Lustig for a while now first learning about his work after reading Gray Taubes aNYT article: Is Sugar Toxic? – NYTimes.com two years ago. Since then I think there is a good chance that I have listened to every lecture or interview with him available on the internet but it was only yesterday that I finally bought his book Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease
My review will be forthcoming but as I done with other books here that I haven’t yet written my personal review of I leave some links here to other reviews and interviews I think are worth reading or listening to:
