Transcript
If you stopped eating sugar for two weeks, this is what would happen. Tell me you don't understand science without telling me you don't understand science. It doesn't matter what he says in the rest of that video, because guaranteed it would be wrong by definition. Absolute statements like that assume that all people are the same. If I'm someone who eats three cups of sugar per day, then obviously if I cut that out for two weeks, I'll be feeling better. But if I'm someone who eats a healthy Mediterranean diet and I have a half a cup of ice cream, after dinner, that's not going to have any negative impact on my health and cutting it out will do nothing. A healthy body is all about living in moderation. A healthy mind is all about ignoring people who try to scare you with absolute statements to get views.
Additional notes
Remember this SUPER IMPORTANT POINT: Only the Sith deal in absolutes. #science
