Sugar: The Bitter Truth

Right after I posted my rant about the High Fructose Corn Syrup commercials, someone shared this wonderful video with me. In it, Dr. Robert Lustig walks you through a thorough explanation of why fructose is so bad for you. I will warn you, this video is 1hr 30 mins long. But it is well worth the time to watch it the whole way through. I have never seen such an eloquent explanation of the difference between glucose and fructose. This video really shows you how ridiculous and evil those HFCS commercials really are. Lustig demonstrates that it is clearly fructose, not fat, that is responsible for the obesity and diabetes epidemics in our country. Even baby formula has fructose in it! And we are seeing overweight 6 month olds now. No wonder!

Anyway, please watch this. It is eye opening.
