How much sugar intake is actually okay?
Can one become addicted to sugar? What does sugar do to our bodies? And what effect could a sugar tax have?
These are just some of the questions that Technische Universität Dresden tries to answer in its new YouTube video. The "Gute Frage" team sheds light on the topic of "Sugar" from different angles and asks various experts from TU Dresden about different aspects related to "sugar".
As an expert in the field of diabetes research, Prof. Michele Solimena, Speaker of the Paul-Langerhans-Institut Dresden of the German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD e.V.), explains the functions of sugar in the human body, the connection between sugar consumption and type2 diabetes and the health consequences that excessive sugar consumption can have for humans.
Take your time and have a look. It turned out to be a great video!
