British Medical Journal (The BMJ)Dietary Sugar Consumption and Health: Umbrella Review

In a study including 73 meta-analyses and 8,601 unique articles, sugar consumption was associated with 18 endocrine/metabolic outcomes, 10 cardiovascular outcomes, seven cancer outcomes, and 10 other outcomes. Endocrine/metabolic outcomes included weight gain, ectopic fat accumulation, obesity, and cardiovascular disease, which were largely attributed to excessive consumption of fructose containing sugars.
