Persons who are overweight tend to have below-average levels of unmetabolized sugar in their blood.

Fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy products often contain as much sugar as sweets.

Consuming large amounts of sugar causes the body to secrete abnormally high amounts of insulin, a sugar-metabolizing enzyme.
