As the dangers of sugar, especially added sugars, are becoming more apparent; there has never been a greater need to be able to know how much sugar we are consuming.

Yet sugars can be hidden, in this practical handbook Elizabeth Roberts lists the total sugar content of over 3,000 common foods and, uniquely, identifies the total amount of sugar (as well as the individual amounts of the differing types of sugar) to allow the reader to judge the health implications of their diet.
