Sugar, sugar, and sugar.

Well this is not quite correct, but sugar is the main reason we all struggle with weight problems these days.

What we don't realize is that sugar is in almost all processed foods we eat, and it is known that one particular ingredient of sugar (Fructose) is the main culprit in causing obesity.

About 100 years ago, the average person consumed around 2 pounds of sugar a year. Now the average yearly consumption of sugar is more like 120 pounds per year.

So, yep, sugar is the main thing to better understand in terms of where it is hiding within our foods.
