This really is a shame. We could improve the quality of many people's lives, extend their lifespans, and save money on health care if we treated sugar addiction as serious social problems, the way we do alcohol, nicotine, and harder drugs.
- FussyZeus 9y agoThe extra sick part of this is when you watch documentaries or whatever and the obese talk about this need to eat, just feeling hungry all the time, so much so that diets are literally excruciating all I can think is "This is an addict, this person is an addict, they need help, look at these poor people, they are suffering!" and I can't believe so many other people just don't see that. No one in their right mind would ever tell a meth addict that they just need to use willpower to get over it. And the worst part is, you need to eat, you can't just not eat, so while you're recovering from a food addiction you must continue eating food. And people wonder why the failure rate is so high.
