Is Sugar to Blame? Obesity, Diabetes and Heart Disease

This documentary investigates sugar and its role in the modern epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. It traces how the food industry, going back to a secret public relations campaign in the 1970s, worked to keep people from asking whether sugar is toxic. The film lays out the science alongside the corporate history, showing how a multi-billion-dollar industry protected itself. A revealing watch for anyone concerned with diet, health, and the politics of what we eat. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
