A call to reduce sugar in processed food

A call to reduce sugar in processed food
Why this petition matters
It’s not news that an average sized person, soft drinks contain much more sugar than safe, but many people do not realize how dangerous is really is. Glucose was the old villain, and this was replaced by fructose, which was promoted as healthier, but is much more toxic in reality. New research on the harm caused by fructose, which is in everything we eat, from fizzy drinks and sweets to bread and fruit juice, is being done all the time. We are more at risk for acne, diabetes, kidney disease and more as we eat more sugar. Eating excessive quantities of sugar could also speed up the aging process of cells and skin, adversely addicts dental health and effects our minds. I believe that if we reduced the amount of sugar that is permitted in one product, it would be best.
