Data from these sources do not support linkages between sugar consumption at normal levels within the human diet and various adverse metabolic and health-related effects
Abstract The relationship between sugar consumption and various health-related sequelas is controversial .
Some investigators have argued that excessive sugar consumption is associated with increased risk of obesity , coronary heart disease , diabetes ( T2D ) , metabolic syndrome , non-alcoholic fatty liver disease , and stimulation of reward pathways in the brain potentially causing excessive caloric consumption .
These concerns have influenced organizations such as the World Health Organization , the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition in Engl and not to exceed 5 % of total energy and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans Advisory Committee 2015 to recommend upper limits of sugar consumption not to exceed 10 % of calories .
Data from many r and omized control trials ( RCTs ) do not support linkages between sugar consumption at normal levels within the human diet and various adverse metabolic and health-related effects .
Fructose and glucose are typically consumed together in roughly equal proportions from high-fructose corn syrup ( also known as isoglucose in Europe ) or sucrose .
The purpose of this review is to present data from recent RCTs and findings from recent systematic review s and meta-analyses related to sugar consumption and its putative health effects .
This review evaluates findings from recent r and omized controlled trials , systematic review s and meta-analyses into the relationship of sugar consumption and a range of health-related issues including energy-regulating hormones , obesity , cardiovascular disease , diabetes , and accumulation of liver fat and neurologic responses .
Carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and incident type 2 diabetes in older women.
BACKGROUND Dietary carbohydrates may influence the development of  type 2 ( non-insulin-dependent ) diabetes  , for example , through effects on blood glucose and insulin concentrations . OBJECTIVE We examined the relations of baseline intake of carbohydrates , dietary fiber , dietary magnesium , and carbohydrate-rich foods and the glycemic index with incidence of diabetes . DESIGN This was a prospect i ve cohort study of 35988 older Iowa women initially free of diabetes . During 6 y of follow-up , 1141 incident cases of diabetes were reported . RESULTS  Total grain , whole-grain , total dietary fiber , cereal fiber , and dietary magnesium intakes  showed strong inverse associations with incidence of diabetes after adjustment for potential nondietary confounding variables . Multivariate-adjusted relative risks of diabetes were 1.0 , 0.99 , 0.98 , 0.92 , and 0.79 ( P for trend : 0.0089 ) across quintiles of whole-grain intake ; 1.0 , 1.09 , 1.00 , 0.94 , and 0.78 ( P for trend : 0.005 ) across quintiles of total dietary fiber intake ; and 1.0 , 0.81 , 0.82 , 0.81 , and 0.67 ( P for trend : 0.0003 ) across quintiles of dietary magnesium intake . Intakes of total carbohydrates , refined grains , fruit and vegetables , and soluble fiber and the glycemic index were unrelated to diabetes risk . CONCLUSION These data support a protective role for grains ( particularly whole grains ) , cereal fiber , and dietary magnesium in the development of diabetes in older women
