Very insightful article, I like that you included the experiment as well as the results to show the effects of the sugar on the enamel of the egg.

Something that I noticed after eating some kinds of candies and soft drinks is that there is a small pain in my teeth due to exposed roots. This is a huge deterrence other than weight loss for me right now to eating sugar.

Lately I have been opting for black coffee or brewed tea (iced or hot) as a replacement for soft drinks when available. Just remember it is OK to have sugar every once in a while, keeping nutritional balance is key in health and weight loss.
