Dr. Lustig was great! thank you for having him on your program..
Just want you to know...Can sugar threaten your health? Dr. Robert Lustig, Professor of Clinical Pediatrics, Division of Endocrinology and Director of the UCSF Weight Assessment for Teen & Child Health (WATCH) Program, says it can! He calls sugar the major cause of obesity and chronic metabolic diseases.
Come hear him speak about his new book: Fat chance: beating the odds against sugar, processed food, obesity and disease, Tues. April 9, 2013, 6pm, San Francisco Main Library, Koret Auditorium. Admission is free. Book sale and signing follows the program. More info.: call 415.557.4400.
Thanks so much for having your guest . Robert H. Lustig on your program today.. He is right on Target! I am living proof of that, I cut sugar out of my life(cookies, candy all of that) and introduced more fat, from butter, whole milk, cheese, meat, vegetables salads and limited amounts of bread which turns into sugar... My cholesterol after a year the bad kind was lower than ever and the good kind was higher than ever. My triglycerides were excellent and my cravings for sweets gone.. I have been so much healthier for the whole last year doing this.
