So in 2016, the FDA announced they would be putting a new category on the Nutrition Facts label on foods that lists "Added Sugars" under the Total Carbohydrates. Full implementation of this could save countless lives and tens of millions of dollars from people preventing heart disease and Type 2 diabetes according to new research using computer models to predict the ramifications of this. Read about it below.

While this is an admirable first step in helping to reeducate consumers about the risks of consuming added sugars in their diet, health podcaster and international bestselling author of KETO CLARITY Jimmy Moore doesn't think this goes far enough.
