Best Answer

No. Sugar is a carbohydrate, and an important source of energy for the body. However, if you consume more sugar than your body can burn, the partially metabolized glucose (sugar) molecules reassemble into fatty acids. In other words, if you eat more sugar than your body needs, it will become fat.
