Sugar & Sweeteners Explained

Category: Health

Description:

Sugar is one of the most misunderstood topics in nutrition. You've heard that it's toxic, addictive, and the root of metabolic disease. You've also heard that natural options like agave or honey are better choices. But most of these claims are based on incomplete science and oversimplified thinking.

In this episode, we break down what actually happens in your body when you consume sugar. We walk through how glucose and fructose are processed, why the liver is involved, and what role dose, context, and total intake play in determining whether sugar becomes a problem. You'll also learn why focusing only on blood sugar misses a large part of the metabolic picture, and how to evaluate sweeteners using a more complete framework.
