I've barely finished a whole can of soft drink in one sitting in my life, just feels like too much to me.

The whole glycemic index for managing diabetes also points towards the deleterious effects of consuming sugar and simple starches. I'm glad he elaborated on the calories in and calories out thing. Your body is much more complex than that. You have to understand your body's chemistry and manage your hormones with a particular dietary strategy since your hormones dictate whether energy is used, stored, and entropy.

I think it's an addiction. Like smoking, hookers, and blow.

This is certainly food for thought. If the solution is simply to avoid the high fructose foods and to exercise moderately, why do intelligent, rational people continue to be obese? Are they intentionally trying to self-distruct?

You sure it's not 83 mg of sodium in a 20 oz bottle (33 mg per 8 oz serving, 2.5 servings in a 20 oz bottle)

Most people do not consume soy sauce every day, nor eat multiple tablespoons in one sitting, so I don't see why you're mentioning it.

I live in the UK and I checked a 2 litre bottle of coke which contained "0g sodium". If as this video claims there are actually 55mg in each can, then why is it not shown on the labelling? Is there some difference between the US and UK products other than HFCS in the US vs cane sugar in the UK ??
