Thanks for uploading this. Gary Taubes has to be one of my biggest heroes in the science world. The fact that the corn refiners want to make sure that the public knows that high fructose corn syrup is like sugar, demonstrates how ignorant the public is about the dangers of sugar consumption. If the public were knowledgeable, they would know that such an association does not speak well of high fructose corn syrup.

Ketones & fat are the best fuel for the brain & body, but you won't use either if you're eating plenty of sugar. Fruit & veggie sugar isn't any different, but there's a lot less of it and it comes with good vitamins & minerals, while grains, soy, junk food just comes with toxins.

@90Rush I'm sure @sumbarine is talking about natural sugars. Those that come from fruit and such. We can all agree that refined stuff like HFCS and CS is bad though.

OMG DONT ADD MUSIC

@sumbarine Nobody's brain has ever been running on high fructose corn syrup or cane sugar. That's the issue.

@sumbarine Yes a little is fine but its the switch people have made by cutting way back on fats and eating wayyy to much sugar and carbs that is causing obesity, syndrome x etc
