I think more than most substances, sugar is overlooked as a major addiction that relates to disease of many people in America. Soda has sooo much sugar and many drink them like they are water. In my early 20s before I got into coffee, I would fill up a 64 oz thermos in the morning with Dr pepper. Then refill at lunch. Of course I was busting ass working then. Now that would make me so sick. How did Bitcoin help you get away from sugar?
saifedean ammous said sugar is bad, and elaborated how bad, so i started listening more closely.
agreed, mass-produced major-brand sodas are mainly drain-decloggers, i say that openly. they are not for human consumption, and never were.
recently someone told me that wheat is toxic, so i refuse buns and bread slices altogether. they do not exist for me. i will eat home-made gluten-free bar/brownie made with almond flour, and will try sourdough bread.

It's interesting how when we get new better information, more comes along with it. I also have been cutting out the wheat and pasta. It was making me feel like crap and I didn't even know it for a long time. I think gluten in general sticks inside of us. No bueno.
