Explanation:
The greatest villain to appear on movie screens this summer isn't a serial killer, terrorist or giant monster. It's sugar.
How evil a villain is it? According to the new documentary "Fed Up" (opening May 9 in select cities), sugar -- currently added to 80 percent of processed foods on U.S. store shelves -- is responsible for America's rising obesity rate, which is occurring despite the tremendous emphasis placed on exercise and portion control for those who are overweight.
Of most concern is the increase in cases of obesity and Type-II diabetes among children, for whom early-onset diabetes was virtually unknown just a few years ago. And if current rates continue, by 2050, one in three Americans will have diabetes.
