A study estimates that more than one billion people are affected and reveals that nutritional imbalances continue to rise. Childhood obesity has quadrupled over the course of three decades
It’s not just any regular sugar, it’s that high fructose corn syrup that’s the killer. Consuming a bit of sugar here and there isn’t that bad, but consuming something that is foreign to the body and accumulates in the liver is a whole new level of fucked up.
True. And lot of these fruits come with fibers, which helps in slowing down the absorption of the sugars. That’s why I barely eat grapes and any fruit that is low on fiber, nor drink any juice, period. You’re right, though.
While high fructose corn syrup isn’t great for you, it’s clearly not the problem. The US domestic use of HFCS peaked in the 90s, yet obesity has continued to skyrocket.

See US Foods vs UK foods. They’re cramming us full of the absolute cheapest, addictive shit they possibly can legally get away with.
