Lol, I thought you were doing low carb. What happened?

Removing refined sugar from your diet can go a long way. I don’t drink sodas anymore, try to keep candy intake down, etc.
This happened in the 60’s, yes. Unfortunately, at that time researchers were not required to disclose funding sources, so it was easy for them to get away with it. However, this doesn’t mean that sugar is poison and no one should ever eat it, like a lot of alarmists will cry. A little bit of occasional sugar isn’t going to destroy anyone’s good health; especially not someone who maintains a healthy weight, exercises regularly, and eats a generally well-balanced diet.
Here is a good article that discusses the sugar industry cover up in the 60’s if anyone is interested.
