Episode 21:41 The Number One Nutritional Problem In America Today
Americans, as a whole, eat far too much “junk” food.
Food that has little to no nutritional value… and contributes to a number of chronic diseases.
However, of all the “junk” food that people ingest, none is worse - or more popular - than sugar.
On this episode we take a good look at sugar:
What it is, where it comes from, why it is so damaging, and how it became so popular.
We also discuss:
- The two most common types of sugar.
- The important differences between sucrose (table sugar) and high fructose corn syrup.
- How several of the major chronic diseases that plague our country can be traced back to too much sugar.
- A simple blood test to measure the impact of fructose on the body.
- Why you shouldn’t eat fruit in the winter.
Give this episode a good listen as it is vitally important to learn the “not so sweet” truth about one of America’s favorite nutrients.
