Persuasive Paragraph
In my point of view, sugar is the worst food in the world because it causes both diabetes and nutritional displacement. First of all, sugar is the No. 1 driver of diabetes. For instance, meta-analysis shows that excessive consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages increased the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome including obesity in adults and children. In addition, sugar occurs nutritional displacement. To illustrate, the empty calories argument states that a diet high in added sugar will reduce the consumption of foods that contain essential nutrients. This nutrient displacement occurs if sugar makes up more than 25% of daily energy intake. Displacement may occur at lower levels of consumption. All in all, sugar damages the body. Sugar causes weight gain and includes poor nutritional qualities. For these reasons, I would like to call sugar as the devil of foods.
