Thank your team for printing the “Sugar Grinch” article from the UK warning us about eating too much refined Sugar.
Unfortunately If you go shopping in New Zealand don’t expect Sugar Free Grocery Items to be available on shelves on a regular basis,
and don’t expect them to be cheap or with useful information on them.
If you get into it, you discover that there are different kinds of sugars and
Every Human body deals with them differently, it seems basic sugars are in everything we eat! Yes that can be a worry and Complicated to deal with
But a good rule of thumb for Healthy People would be to stick to Natural Sugars in Natural proportions, if only the Supermarkets Could supply,
we could have a bit of choice in the matter. This of course is a good argument For Government Cooperative food outlets as part of our National Health Strategy.
So anybody in Politics want to take-on one of the most powerful Industries in the Country? Probably not David Cunliffe by the sounds of it.
Oh yes... Leave the Greens to do all the work, as usual.
