I suppose you could make the debate it's the most convenient source, but your daily intake of regular carbs will be more than enough to supply the brain with energy.
If sugar had no adverse affects, then cool, go wild with it. But it's not as simple as calories in vs calories out. Sugar is high in fructose, which doesn't occur naturally in the body. It can only be metobolised by the liver. A high sugar diet overloads the liver and causes a bunch of health problems. It's also a leading contributor to bad cholesterol. It also causes a dopamine release in the brain, making it highly addictive. If you have strong will power, great. But most don't and over indulge in sugary foods/drinks.

God this is terrible. Fructose doesn't occur naturally in the body so its bad. Lol. Come on, that doesn't even make sense.
Who cares if fructose is metabolized by the liver. Show examples of people with an overloaded liver due to fructose. What are these other health problems?
Sugar is addictive? Fatty foods can also be very easy to overeat and addictive. Give me pizza and fish and chips over sugary foods any day of the week. I'd even rather eat bucket loads of nuts and cheese than sugary foods. Does than now mean protein and fats are evil because they can be very easily overeaten.
Any foods can be overeaten. Its not the fault of the food it's the fault of the person.
Sugar being evil is just the newest fad.
It's not really hidden. Look on the nutritional panel.

Milk has sugar in it, so does fruit...and nutri grain has a bit of sugar in it also.

Its hidden to a dumb bastard.
plus, constantly looking at the nutritional label to determine what you are going to eat is a fucked up idea.
That's it. If you cut every food out that had sugar there wouldn't be much left to eat.

No veggies either. Those sugar natzis will be real healthy.

Excess anything. Not just sugar.

Not nececelary Bazz, excess sugar has got to be worse than excess vegetables
Excess water can kill you so can excess oxygen.
People just like to jump on one thing and class it as evil with out any proper reasoning because its much simpler than the real story.
