why is added sugar so bad for us but regular sugar isn’t?

1.61K viewsChemistryOther

For example, most fruits have around 10-20g of sugar per cup of fruit. How is this sugar any different than if I were to eat a granola bar with 10g of added sugar? Or have a drink with added sugar? The USDA says to limit added sugar consumption, but says nothing about limiting regular sugar consumption. Is added sugar chemically any different from sugar found in natural foods?

Sugar in fruit isn’t refined sugar, it’s natural sugar and fruit is organic, natural to the earth, much more natural than eating granola.
