Pure, White and Deadly (1972) by John Yudkin is a groundbreaking book that exposes the dangers of excessive sugar consumption. Decades before modern health debates, Yudkin argued that sugar—not fat—is a primary cause of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and other metabolic disorders. He presents scientific evidence linking sugar to chronic illnesses and critiques the food industry for promoting sugary products. The book challenges dietary misconceptions and urges readers to reconsider their sugar intake for long-term health.
《纯白致命》（Pure, White and Deadly，1972年）是约翰·尤德金的颠覆性著作，揭示了过量摄入糖的危害。在现代健康争议出现之前，尤德金就提出糖（而非脂肪）才是肥胖、糖尿病、心脏病等代谢疾病的主因。他通过科学依据证明糖与慢性病的关联，并批评食品行业推广高糖产品。本书挑战了饮食误区，呼吁人们减少糖分摄入以维护健康。
Author Profile
John Yudkin (1910–1995) was a British physiologist and nutritionist, renowned for his early warnings about sugar’s health risks. A professor at Queen Elizabeth College, London, his research opposed mainstream dietary guidelines, particularly the focus on fat as the primary dietary villain. Though initially controversial, his work gained recognition decades later as modern science validated his claims.
