The "diet" industry is a multi billion dollar goldmine. All sorts of charletons want a piece of the action. All they need is a good catchy advertising campaign and a supply of gullible people.
The human digestive tract is capable of turning just about any fuel that contains carbohydrates into the energy required to live. The bodies bio system has a wealth of repair mechanisms that have been acquired as necessary or can be developed to combat all sorts of problems.
The ony way to get fat is to eat more than is required to sustain the system. Problems arise here from hereditary problems that were acquired to handle irregular diets that tend to store fuel in the body as fat to sustain the system in times of famine. Not everyone has this problem so some can eat as much as they like and not store fat. The surplus is just discharged as waste.
Sugar is just another carbohydrate that works great as fuel and if you let the body tell you by your palate you will know when you are eating too much of it.
