Lustig does a fantastic job explaining the cellular processes at work, which appealed to my engineering side. I'm not usually passionate about biochemistry and this lecture is definitely long, but if you make it through the first 15 minutes you will be hooked.
- AlexC04 16y agoI came to say the same thing. I'm at Minute #50 of 90 - but my mind has been blown about six ways from Sunday right now. He's an excellent speaker and this stuff is phenomenally interesting.
- 100k 16y agoThis is one of those "life changing" videos. I'm not sure about the whole paleo diet thing, but I'm pretty sure humans didn't evolve to eat large quantities of sugar.
- nikcub 16y agoI am one of those people who is hard to convince to watch something, so if there is anybody else out there reading this comment thread and wondering if you should watch that video - please do. It is informative in parts, and his style is excellent, but watch if with an open mind and a pinch of skepticism
- g_lined 16y agoThanks. I watched the video only after reading your comment. I found something new about fructose so it was worth it. I personally am turned off by his presentation style. He tries to hard to convince me of his conclusion, too rhetorically and indeed before he had presented his reasons. Nevertheless I feel that the theory of what he presented is pretty much right and the only question appears to be to what degree you agree with his conclusions.
