    I'm in with you. Sugar is toxic. Sugar kills slowly over time.

    so does entropy.

    pretty sure that's never been listed on any death certificate as the official cause of death though.

    I have a bad feeling that this 'documentary' is focusing on the research of one rather obsessed Doctor, but I hope not.

    I think refined sugar can be incredibly bad in huge quantities that people eat it in. Its hidden in a lot of items.

    I don't eat it so I don't worry about it.

    "Has the sugar industry been hiding an unsavoury truth from consumers?"

    Someone really needs to be commended for this line in the promos though. It's priceless.

    my guess is someone will upload it on you tube I will keep you posted for any reviews that come out just the introduction on what it does to the brain is a rude awakening but my buddy he is an exsmoker and has seen this all before, the sugar food manufacturers are selling a product that is bad for many and just like ciqarettes they don't want to acknowledge it.

    the smoke companies knew for years they were manipulating the nicotine in the smokes to keep people hooked and the head honchos outright lied and denied it until the evidence came to the light of day.

    For someone who is supposedly trying to educate themselves, you are very quick to dismiss one of the best critical thinkers in health and fitness.

    I assume Aragon has a list of medical credentalls behind his name, I would like to read the research he has conducted and whiat medical journals he has published in as well as who provided the funding for his research.


    I hope he isn't some bro science guy with working as a trainer in the gym.

    It is not. You don't get diabetes from eating too much sugar.
