The is a branch of research about the myelin sheath around brain cells showing deterioration due to lack of fat consumption when we shifted to 6-11 servings of bread and pasta a day for all that sugar.
Sugar activates the same receptors as heroin. Which, isn’t surprising since simple sugars are what fueled much of our earlier ancestors. I personally am not a fan of this fact and would rather frame it as heroin activates the same receptors as sugar.
That said, the sugar industry is a mess. A number of documentaries have been made about it, how they have bribed government officials, had the ear of presidents, and have killed journalists.
The problem with sugar is that it’s in just about everything. Sugar, by itself, is not a bad thing so long as you don’t overdue it but…a single coke is overdoing it.
So do protein, exercise, meditation, getting a raise, spending time with family, and a million other things. I’m not saying sugar is good, but this statement is meaningless.
I’m ready. Tell me. I already know I probably shouldn’t eat it but give me the gut punch.

Came about from Alzheimer’s research.
