Based on the fact that excessive sugar consumption adversely affects human health, triggering many diseases from obesity to hypertension, cardiovascular diseases to chronic kidney failure and depression, the Turkish Kidney Foundation has planned 19-25 September as "World Sugar Consumption Reduction Week".
It is our aim that this week, which has been determined to raise awareness about the harms of excessive sugar consumption in societies, is actually a fundamental gain that should be achieved throughout life, with all stakeholders and the society being celebrated annually.
