title: [Is sugar a nutrient robber?].
abstract: There is no scientifically based evidence, that sucrose as currently consumed interferes with the metabolism of micronutrients. Thiamine is essential and needed for the metabolism of sucrose but for all the other carbohydrates as well. The observation, that sucrose is diminishing the calcium stores of animal bodies (1926) was proved to be false in 1956 already.
