Maybe the most confusing thing about the whole HFCS controversy is that there isn’t actually much scientific debate.

For 45 years there was NO debate that a diet based mostly on carbs, even if comprised of food made mostly of sugar, was the best way to eat because meat would give you a heart attack. Then suddenly there was a debate when people kept having heart attacks and had diabetes now too. Whenever the science is taken for granted to be settled, I have questions.

The best bet is to avoid high fructose corn syrup AND cane sugar but of the two I'd fave the one closer to nature, cane sugar.

At least the cane sugar started out as sugar..............

We used to WORK a lot off.

Men AND women had a harder life a hundred years ago (even in the city) and we were active human beings.

Today, we sit.

We all like sugar and that’s a problem.
Go on youtube and look at some videos of sugar processing
it doesn’t come like that from the cane.

I also watched some videos about England
and the introduction of processed sugar into their diet.
As a simple agrarian society their teeth were beautiful
but once processed sugar became available to the masses
the decay and tooth lose was horrific.
