Dr. Robert Lustig illustrates the overabundance of sugar in today’s processed convenience foods and explains how our bodies metabolize these sugars in the same way as alcohol or other toxins, causing damage to the liver and other organs.

Thanks so much for sharing this video. Jen recently stopped eating all simple carbs and went through physical withdrawals. That was a wake-up call that this stuff is far more dangerous than we like to think.
I’m happy you found this as important as I did myself:
When you really hear it- “Food Industry”, does that sound strangely out of touch with eating, and more about the business of selling industrial products? They make everybody sick, in the name if industry: food industry, health care industry, etc. But sugar, which was a delicatessen until few years back, and a rarity until WWII was over, is a real poison, and all industrial ingredients in processed foods are toxic waste: waste to waist tonics!
