Does confectionery and sugar cause diabetes or any other medical condition?

No, sucrose (also known as table sugar or cane sugar) and other sugars do not cause diabetes4. Most recommendations for the management of diabetes permit the modest (30-50g/day) intake of sucrose and other added sugars in the diet5. Sugars do not cause heart disease. Sugar and other carbohydrates are not linked to lung, breast, stomach, prostate, oesophagus, liver, or cervical cancers4,5. Scientific studies have proven that sugar doesn’t cause hyperactivity in children.
