@thallious9876 While we are passionate about health, philanthropy, and cloud computing, as a company, we don't even attempt to advise on health questions. I would recommend asking your doctor or sending an email to Dr. Robert Lustig.

I would like to have this video to be translated into finnish. We tend to have sort of "North Korean"-type filter about publicity in this case. I am volunteer to translate into finnish if I get permission for it.

Hey dudes, let us disagree, without being disabreeably so. After all, the statements he has made is not like any of the above mentioned dictators and Ideologues. Examine his contentions first. Study them first , if you please, and disagree when you have done so. Knee-jerk reacions are very primitive forms of neorological reactions. we don't .as educated people, instigate anger, ill-will,We need to find a plausible dialectic instead of an emotional outburst.

Useful stuff, but nothing a quick Google search wouldn't bring up. The obesity problem has many different causes, but, like most problems in our society, the root cause is all the criminals that are being left alive. They're always coming up with new schemes to poison people. You can try to counteract their propaganda with talks like this, but they'll come up with more schemes. As long as they're alive, you can expect to die early.
