More than 40 years before Gary Taubes published The Case Against Sugar, John Yudkin published his now-classic expos on the dangers of sugar--reissued here with a new introduction by Robert H. Lustig, the bestselling author of Fat Chance.

Scientist John Yudkin was the first to sound the alarm about the excess of sugar in the diet of modern Americans. His classic expos , Pure, White, and Deadly, clearly and engagingly describes how sugar is damaging our bodies, why we eat so much of it, and what we can do to stop. He explores the ins and out of sugar, from the different types--is brown sugar really better than white?--to how it is hidden inside our everyday foods, and how it is harming our health.

In 1972, Yudkin was mostly ignored by the health industry and media, but the events of the last forty years have proven him spectacularly right. Yudkin's insights are even more important and relevant now, with today's record levels of obesity, than when they were first published. Brought up-to-date by childhood obesity expert Dr. Robert H. Lustig, this emphatic treatise on the hidden dangers of sugar is essential reading for anyone concerned about their health, the health of their children, and the wellbeing of modern society.

Great shelves!
Color: Grey, Size: 55 Inch, Style: 2 Pack
This shelf is lovely--simple and modern. My handyman said it was easy to install AND made a note to buy it for his own rental units because he said the internal supports were very sturdy. Fast delivery and exactly as described--and the price is nice, too.

Open kitchen concept came alive ❤️
Love these shelves and recommend to others. They are sturdy with the mounting bracket system and look great. It was easy to install with another set of hands. The material has the look I wanted and there were no missing parts!
