In may this year, I couldn't walk very far without having to sit down. I was drinking a lot and going to the toilet a lot. The final straw was that my eye sight change over a weekend. I really struggled with my long vision. So I decided immediately to cut out sugar. 8 weeks later, my eye sight went back to normal. I've lost 2 stones. I feel healthier. I'm able to walk long distance and I'm sleeping much better. I eat want I want, except for anything that contains sugar. Thrust me a high intake of sugar is not good for our body.

Very sad how people live on fast food, take away food, uber eats. I believe it has a lot to do with today's culture that both parents work to buy bigger houses and more things to put in them. The foccus is not on eating healthy. No time for cooking any more. I used to have sushi after gym sometimes but then they started Uber eats deliveries and they added MSG to the sushi which I felt stright away. My body is very sensitive. I cook all my meals. However now at 67 if I have sweet stuff my toes go numb. Even from dates. So I do have to stop sugar. I am very happy I can still have honey in my cacao drinks in the morning.

I have known for years that sugar is by far the worst thing you can eat.

More emphasis on STARCH!! I was concerned about diabetes so I ate low sugar! I had unsweetened cerial for breakfast, 2 sandwhiches (4 slices of brown bread) for lunch and Mac and cheese or spegetti for supper because no one told me starch turns to sugar. I am in worse shape than my siblings who didn't watch their diet.

Who is “they”? And to the person who said, “Do the research”, please share the research. Please provide the links for the evidence-based research that you’ve done to support the idea that the number of covid deaths were “artificially” and “grossly inflated due to “unethical reporting requirements”- given your comments imply that you’ve done the research. Additionally, what were the “unethical reporting requirements” of which you’re aware? I’m no research scientist, data specialist, or data collector (at least not in the realm of covid related death data collection), but I am a fellow human with a science background and a generally open, curious, mind. Thus, to the best of my understanding, “margin of error” is a known and accepted concept in any scientific research and/or statistical data collection…and that’s utilizing the best research or data collection designs and methods. In other words, “margin of error”, in either direction (+/-) is automatically a consideration in reporting as far as I know. The goal is to minimize, to the highest degree possible, gross over- or under-reporting. So, ok, let’s go with your statement that there was gross inflation of the death count. What’s that grossly inflated number and was/is it statistically significant enough to drop our numbers of covid-related deaths below those of other developed countries? From all indications, the prevailing knowledge appears to still be that we fared worse in the U.S., with covid mortality, than many other developed countries and probably worse than needed to happen, but that’s a different conversation. Also, since we seem to be making empirical observations, it’s important to note, too, that some U.S. hospitals were at risk of collapse under the weight of covid disease burden. And many people across the country, with other major conditions, suffered unnecessary delays in treatment (and possibly death) subsequent to the heavy burden of covid disease at the various peaks of the pandemic. Furthermore, how many of those other people eventually contracted covid, while waiting at home to have a critical procedure done, and ultimately died at home as a result of now known covid complications that potentially hastened their demise? More to the point, how many people died at home with covid, in general, who never made the covid related death count because they never made it to the hospital and it was assumed they died of natural causes or as a direct result of whatever pre-existing condition they had? So, my guess is that covid related deaths may have been underestimated. Nevertheless, I’ll refrain from saying things like the numbers were “grossly” and “artificially” over…or…underestimated. Either way, share the vetted, reliable, research and “let a ‘yes’ be yes and a ‘no’ be “no”.

We love Mark Hyman, but he is making the same mistake most low-carb advocates are making when it comes to sugar. Starch, which is glucose, and table sugar, which is 50 percent fructose and is very sweet are NOT metabolically the same on our body. When experts say "sugar is sugar," they don't know what they are talking about. Humans have been eating various amounts of starch in the form of potatoes, rice, corn and wheat for about 10,000 years without getting metabolic diseases like insulin resistance and diabetes. This is a fact. All you have to do is look at history, and this pattern is crystal clear. People on the island of Tukisenta were studied. They ate a diet of 94 percent starch, yet were free of heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. The question I have, is with how high their insulin was, how come they did not get sick or get insulin resistance? It's because they completely avoided fructose, the sweet sugar that history tells us is the REAL cause of metabolic disease for the most part... And yes, I am on the carnivore diet...

Endurance athletes (not extreme endurance athletes) have a lower risk of all cause mortality and type 2 diabetes yet they eat sugar all day. Overconsumption, lack of exercise is the problem. The overconsumption is due to ultra processed foods that are high in calories and low in nutrition. Ultra processed food are usually high in both fat and sugar making them high in calories.
