Sweet Nothings

(HealthDayNews) -- Contrary to what many people believe, white sugar is no better or worse for you than any other sugar.

According to Harvard Medical School, all sugars -- including honey, molasses and corn syrup -- are created equal from a nutritional standpoint. But too much sugar of any kind can be bad for your health. Sugar is packed with calories, which may give you energy, but it has no vitamins, minerals or nutrients. And on top of all that, sugar is rotten for your teeth.
