Everyone knows what sugar is. We all eat it sometime or another. Sugar isn’t good for you, it’s quite the opposite. If you only eat it in moderation it’s not too bad. Some people ignore this fact and the aftermath of that isn’t so sweet.

Sugar can rot your teeth. It can make you ill and if you eat a lot of then it can make you obese.

In sixth class we conducted an experiment to see how much sugar is in our favourite fizzy drinks. The results were mind blowing. There is almost half a zip lock bag full of sugar in drinks like Monster Energy, Lucozade , Ribena and certain packaged smoothies.

So think before you drink!
