Is sugar addictive?
This is just not true. An addictive substance is one that causes the body to require more and more of it to satisfy its needs and that leads to unpleasant symptoms of withdrawal when it is not available. While people may enjoy and want sweet foods, it is unlikely that you actually need bigger and bigger portions to meet needs and will suffer real physical withdrawal if they become unavailable. The body is not actually able to tell the difference between sugar in a piece of fruit, such as an apple, or table sugar. It is unlikely that people would ever believe they were addicted to, or suffering withdrawal symptoms from, apples should their daily serving be withdrawn.
