Actually, DK, it is a fact. Sugar is never good for you in of itself, and most candy doesn't just have sugar, it has neurotoxic artificial sweeteners (sugar itself is toxic as well). What we need is carbohyrdates, some of which do turn to sugar after we eat them; however, carbohydrates, in order to be healthy, must be eaten in conjunction with protein, fiber, and/or good fat. Chocalate itself can provide health benefits, yes, but the candy as a whole that it is part of is never healthy. Furthermore, by saying that the candy is healthy because parts of it are healthy, you are committing the fallacy of composition. So even if you were correct in your facts, your conclusion is faulty. Just wondering... how many healthy books have you actually read?
