  • 1: The Great Sugar Lie

    1: The Great Sugar Lie
    Feb 8 2025
    For decades, we were led to believe that fat was the enemy, causing heart disease and obesity. This idea, largely based on flawed research from the 1950s, led to a surge in low-fat products. However, what we weren’t told was that the sugar industry played a major role in shaping this narrative.

    In the 1960s, sugar companies funded studies that downplayed the dangers of sugar while shifting the blame to fat. As a result, food manufacturers replaced fat with sugar, making so-called "healthy" foods even more harmful. Meanwhile, obesity, diabetes, and heart disease rates skyrocketed.

    The truth? Fat is not the enemy—our bodies need it for brain function, hormone production, and overall health. Instead, excessive sugar consumption is a key contributor to many modern health issues.

    This episode exposes how we were fooled into fearing fat while unknowingly consuming more sugar, shaping decades of misguided dietary habits. It’s time to question what we’ve been told and make choices based on truth, not industry-driven deception.
