His classic expos , \u003ci\u003ePure, White, and Deadly\u003c\/i\u003e, 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 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.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn Yudkin (1910-1995) was a British physiologist and nutritionist.
