I'm not agreeing with the parent, but some of my health issues were improved by changing my diet, and a large part of that was avoiding sugar almost entirely.
Those health issues included exhaustion, which shows up most at work.
In short, I can see a possible connection, and I can definitely get behind the idea of trying to eat more healthily. But I definitely don't subscribe to the "you can fix anything by looking up these magical words and then avoiding them in foods" that is parroted so often on the internet now.
- SketchySeaBeast 7y agoYeah, I'm not arguing that you can't make life better by eating better. If anything the desire to eat better is usually part of a larger desire to take care of yourself, which usually comes with a whole swath of lifestyle changes that lead to a better general well-being. I just don't think it's magic that'll turn "I'm burned out and miserable" to "I love my work and life" through a reduction in Twinkies and an increase in "beta-amine-32-oxylate" or some other nonsense.
