Sugar High?

So the latest from England is that a new study claims that the levels of child obesity are overstated in that country. Instead of reported 30% something percent, the new study claims its more like 10%. The problem is that is was funded by the choco-sugar giant Cadbury Shwepes (sic).

I am no diet expert, but hey there has to be some level of biasness in that. Reminds me of when the tobacco giants claimed that their own studies in the 70s/80s claimed tobacco was not harmful.

Even at 10% does then the sugar purveyours think that is acceptable?

Craziness.
