	Can Sugar Be Part Of A Healthy Lifestyle?
		Andrew Briscoe, the president and CEO of the Sugar Association, told his colleagues in the sugar industry that there is not a link between sugar and obesity as has been suggested.
		Not that I really expected to hear anything different from the head honcho behind the marketing of sugar in America, but Briscoe's ignorance about the very clear role that sugar has played in the obesity epidemic is either deceptive at best or intentionally misleading at the very worst.
		Briscoe earnestly believes, or at least that is what he would have us think to save his hide, that sugar is a natural part of any healthy diet and lifestyle.
