  2. Sugar is poison. Best to cut it out of your diet completely, except for special occasions.

    Wow. That was a very long video. Lots of science (which I like) but so interesting. Thanks for sharing.

  4. I mildly accidentally drank a 35cl drink today that had 20 (TWENTY) grams of sugar in it. Never again I felt like I had been poisoned. Wouldn't even be surprised if that's the reason I don't wanna PMO today, had my fair share of dopamine if what you say is true

  5. That video above is fascinating. In it, an endocrinologist shows how the body processes sugar the exact same way chemically that it would an actual poison. So, as far as the body is concerned, sugar is indeed poisonous to it!

  6. Sugar indeed is a poison. There are all kinds of sugar, often cleverly disguised on packaging to make it appear less bad, but if you ask me fructose sticks out like some kind of sugar demon. It is capable of binding to tryptophan in the gut, therefore preventing the production of serotonin, while increasing levels of dopamine at the same time, a double whammy for anyone with malabsorption syndrome.
