| dbo:abstract |
Action on Sugar is a registered UK charity formed in 2014 by a group of specialists concerned about sugar and its impact on health. Through research and lobbying the group works to highlight the harmful effects of a high sugar diet and desirability of reducing the amount of added sugar contained in processed foods. Professor Graham MacGregor, a cardiologist at Queen Mary University of London is chair of both of Action on Sugar and Action on Salt. It argues for more regulation of health and nutrition claims. It is particularly concerned about the “dangerously high” levels of sugar in on-the-go sweet snacks and highlighted Aldi’s Specially Selected Triple Chocolate Cookies, which contained 39g sugar per 80g serving.
