Here is my facts to back it up.

The biggest reason sugar does more damage than any other poison, drug or narcotic is twofold:

(a) It is considered a "food" and ingested in such massive quantities, and

(b) The damaging effects begin early, from the day a baby is born and is fed sugar in its formula. Even mothers milk is contaminated with it if the mother eats sugar, and

(c) Practically 95% of people are addicted to it to some degree or other.

the video comparing a potato to white sugar is very absurd.

but still sugar wont do harm in moderation. its about balance. as long as you take complex carbs, it wont hurt to take some simple carbs along with it.

and i cant believe they're making a banana look bad in that video, this is insane
