Sugar as Fuel and Strength in Workmen and Horses
Dr Gall argues people cannot assimilate more sugar than a certain amount, sugar aiding endurance while alcohol weakens resistance. He notes sugar is a food that sustains effort, with workers, cyclists, and soldiers urged to increase intake. Horses in Paris are fed two and a half pounds daily with corn and hay, and drink less beer when sugar-rich rations are used. France, like Germany, moves to sugar-based soldier rations.
