误解：糖和硬性毒品一样会让人上瘾

FACT: There is no conclusive evidence that sugar is addictive.

事实：并没有确凿的证据证明糖会让人上瘾。

"There's no evidence that sugar can act as a gateway drug," Dr. Haythe said. "You can't get high from sugar, and there's no conclusive evidence that sugar is addictive."

海耶斯博士说：“没有证据证明糖可以当作入门级毒品。吃糖不会亢奋，而且也没有确凿证据证明吃糖会上瘾。”

MYTH: Eating too much sugar causes diabetes

误解：吃太多糖会得糖尿病

FACT: Both types of diabetes are caused by a mix of genetics and environmental factors, but a sugary diet cannot directly cause it (alone).

事实：两种类型的糖尿病都是由基因和环境因素综合导致的，但是单单是多糖饮食并不会直接导致糖尿病。

"Eating sugar does not cause diabetes; it’s a complicated problem involving your pancreas and metabolism," Dr. Haythe said. "When you have diabetes, you don't produce enough insulin. Insulin helps the glucose get absorbed into your bloodstream and liver as usable energy."

海耶斯博士说：“吃糖不会导致糖尿病；糖尿病是涉及胰腺和代谢功能的复杂病症。如果你有糖尿病，你的身体就不能分泌足够的胰岛素。胰岛素能帮助葡萄糖被血液和肝脏吸收，从而转化成可被利用的能量。”
