In this audiobook, Lustig argues that sugar drives chronic diseases including cancer as well as animal models for diabetes and Alzheimer's disease.

Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease is about how excess sugar consumption may lead to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. The author asserts that sugar is not just a problem for your health - it's an addiction that has "metabolically-based neurological effects" on the brain.

And he's now turned his attention to the food industry, from farmers to food scientists to grocery stores. The result is a book that will change the way you think about sugar - and what it does to your weight and health.
