Freely Eating Sugar Ruined Me

[Tristan Loscha]

If we do not eat glucose for a living, but lipid, we do not get cortisol spikes; when there is no demand, there is no need for supply.

I've done 2 distinct multi-month stints of mostly-sugar diets, just to see. Granted, I did not use organic sugar, so I'm sure the glyphosate hit me hard.

Both times I slept incredibly well, felt much more calm, spoke fluently, more able to laugh at myself and circumstances and was much more open to life in general. On the flip side, I gained a tremendous amount of weight, at least 20lbs, and found it difficult to self-motivate to get up and out. I was very content being lazy and enjoying the moment in lieu of things that had to be done. It did feel like a bit of an escape, but I wonder if that "escape" is necessary...
