Is Sugar as Bad as Crack?

Can you OD on cupcakes?
60 minutes did a great segment on what sugar can do to your body. This is what I feel is one of the deadliest weapons against the health of the human race. What makes it more challenging is that it is as addictive as crack. Sugar releases dopamine to your brain to create a euphoria, but it only leads to more and more cravings. Eventually you need a bigger fix in order to get the same rush. Sounds just like a drug huh?
Sugar doesn’t stop there with obesity. It also feeds cancerous tissue helping it to grow larger. Basically each bag of Skittles helps to nurture and build that cancerous tumor. How terrible is that?!?!
