Text: (Excerpt about sugar consumption and
health implications)
Sugar has never been considered a health food,
but lately, the science against it keeps growing
stronger. New evidence shows going overboard on
the sweet stuff can lead to high cholesterol and blood
pressure […] not to mention excess weight gain.
Problem is most people are eating more sugar
now than they ever have. The average person
consumes about 20 teaspoons of added sugar a day —
300 calories worth! — which is four times more than
the amount recommended by most health experts,
including the American Heart Association. Annually,
all those teaspoons add up to 170 pounds of sugar.
So why are we so addicted to sugar? First off, it
is literally addicting. When you eat something sweet,
you get a surge of dopamine, the chemical in your
brain that brings you pleasure. Added sugar is also
tough to dodge. Sweetener hides in foods that don’t even taste sugary, like breads, sauces and condiments.
What’s more, it’s so hard to decipher the difference
between added sugars and the kinds found naturally
in whole foods. Eating naturally occurring sugars —
like fructose in fruit and lactose in dairy — is
generally considered healthy because they contain
nutrients with metabolic benefits, such as fiber and
antioxidants. Added sugars (sweeteners put into food
for flavor) have no such perks. […]

From a linguistic standpoint, the intensifier
“literally” in the phrase “it is literally addicting”
carries weight beyond stylistic function, reinforcing
the factual nature of the addiction mechanism
attributed to sugar.

The phrase “not to mention excess weight gain”
introduces a contrastive element that minimizes the
previous health risks related to sugar, functioning
rhetorically to downplay its consequences.
