The main article (apparently from the Department of the Flippin' Obvious) is all about how a sugary diet is Not A Good Idea, even for those who don't have diabetes and aren't likely to develop it.
That of course depends on what the question is. 😉 If the question is "how can I get enormously fat and lose all my teeth in hardly any time?" then, yes, a cake diet is the answer.
However, what caught my eye about this article (hence this post) is the sidebar beneath it:
It (and its cousins sorbitol and mannitol) certainly do this -- use any of these, and all the fat you shovel in at one end will soon be coming out of the other. 😱 And my mind boggles at the claim (also in that sidebar) that the sugar alcohols are low-GI -- that's not my experience of them. 🙄
